Abstract

Bilateral secondary osteoarthritis of the hip may affect also young patients following bilateral hip diseases such as slipped capital femoral epiphysis and developmental hip dysplasia. We report the case of an 18- year old male with a previous diagnosis of Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease who underwent a bilateral total hip arthroplasty through minimally invasive direct anterior approach, with optimal results at 1-year follow up.
