The Stracathro approach to the hip is a modification of the lateral approach, which was popularized by Hays and McLauchlan. It has a high safety profile and a low rate of hip dislocation. However, the need for osteotomy increases blood loss, risk of intraoperative fracture, and postoperative heterotopic calcification. In sub-Saharan Africa, where traditional healers dabble in the treatment of all musculoskeletal conditions, extensive soft tissue contractures and disuse osteoporosis arise and further complicate the lateral approach. The objective of this article is to highlight modifications made to the stracathro approach and present the short-term results in a group of 26 patients, who had hemiarthroplasty using this technique.
