Sumario:In recent years, there has been increased interest in transitioning total joint arthroplasty procedures from inpatient settings to ambulatory surgical centers to decrease costs and eliminate the need for hospital stays. In addition, simultaneous bilateral total hip arthroplasty (THA) has been found to be favorable in certain patient populations when compared with staged bilateral THA. In this study, we report the results of a series of three patients who underwent single-stage bilateral THA in a free-standing ambulatory surgical center with excellent short-term outcomes and no 90-day complications.
