Sumario:BACKGROUND: The purpose of our study is to compare the results of supine and lateral decubitus positions for total hip arthroplasty (THA) with the direct lateral (DL) approach in overweight and obese patients. METHODS: Patients who had a THA with the DL approach using the lateral decubitus position (LD group) (n = 54) or supine position (S group) (n = 54) or supine position (S group) ( RESULTS: Both groups did not differ from each other by means of age, gender, BMI, and affected side (p = 0.814, p = 0.814, p = 0.814, p = 0.814, p = 0.814, p = 0.814, p = 0.814, p = 0.814, CONCLUSIONS: The LD and S groups had comparable functional outcomes one year postoperatively. However, the S group was associated with worse intraoperative outcomes than the LD group.
