When patients begin researching hip replacement surgery, one of the most common questions is: Does the surgical approach really affect the outcome? With increasing discussion about the Direct Anterior Approach (DAA), posterior approach and other techniques, it can be difficult to know whether one method is truly better than another. The reality is that surgical […]
The Direct Anterior Approach (DAA) to total hip replacement has gained attention as a modern, muscle-sparing technique designed to support faster early recovery and improved mobility. By accessing the hip joint through natural muscle planes rather than cutting through muscle, this approach can reduce soft-tissue trauma and help patients regain movement sooner after surgery. While […]
If you are considering hip replacement surgery, understanding the recovery process is just as important as the procedure itself. The Direct Anterior Approach (DAA) is increasingly chosen for its muscle-sparing pathway, which may contribute to a more comfortable early recovery period. Below, we outline what you can expect after surgery, and look at recent research […]
The Direct Anterior Approach (DAA) to total hip replacement is a muscle-sparing technique that allows surgeons to access the hip joint by working between natural tissue planes rather than cutting muscle. This innovative approach has become increasingly popular for patients seeking a hip replacement that supports early recovery, reduced pain, and a quicker return to […]
Mr Sulaiman Alazzawi is offering the Direct Anterior Approach (DAA) to total hip replacement, a modern surgical technique designed to support faster recovery while preserving the body’s natural anatomy. This minimally invasive, muscle-sparing approach reflects ongoing advances in hip surgery aimed at improving early outcomes for patients undergoing joint replacement. What Is the Direct Anterior […]
Preparing for joint surgery can feel daunting, especially if it’s your first operation. The good news is that a bit of planning ahead of time can make a real difference to how smoothly everything goes, both on the day of surgery and during your recovery. Preparing for joint surgery means getting your body, your home, […]
Mr Sulaiman Alazzawi has co-authored a newly published study alongside colleagues from the Trauma & Orthopaedics Department at St George’s University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, examining long-term outcomes following revision surgery for prosthetic joint infection. Prosthetic joint infection is one of the more serious complications after hip or knee replacement surgery. Although uncommon, it can […]
Consultant orthopaedic surgeon Mr Sulaiman Alazzawi in collaboration with colleagues from the Complex Arthroplasty Unit at St George’s University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust is an author on an important systematic review published in Archives of Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgery titled: “The impact of electronic cigarettes on the outcomes of total joint arthroplasty.” Smoking tobacco is […]
For Garry Harper, sport has always been a way of life. From his early years playing football at a professional level to cycling, swimming and fell running, staying active was second nature. But after a serious motorbike accident at 17 that ruptured both his ACL and PCL, his knees became a lifelong challenge. Over the […]
