With increasing numbers of total hip arthroplasties performed each year, the incidence of problems related to loosening and wear of total hip arthroplasties is expected to also increase. While the anterior approach for primary total hip arthroplasty has demonstrated to result in a faster short-term recovery than the traditional lateral and posterior approach, this effect has not yet been investigated in revision surgery. Accelerating functional outcome may increase patient satisfaction and reduce healthcare costs.
The primary objective is to assess whether isolated cup revision surgery through the anterior approach results in increased functional status and higher patient satisfaction than through the posterolateral approach.
This is a prospective Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) in which 68 patients will be included (34 per group). Patients will be evaluated preoperatively and 6 weeks, 3 months and 1 year postoperatively.
The main endpoints are functional recovery as measured with the 30-sec Chair Stand Test (30s-CST), 40m Fast Paced Walking Test (40m FPWT) and the Stair Climb Test (SCT).
Secondary endpoints are Modified Borg scale outcomes after the functional tests, Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) for pain (rest/movement), Oxford Hip Score (OHS), HOOS-PS, EQ-5D-5L, satisfaction, cup inclination and complications at 30 days and 90 days postoperatively.

| Lowgrade infection | To investigate selection bias caused by loss to follow up, the investigators will also record whether a lowgrade infection was determined during or after revision surgery. | 6 weeks, 3 months and 1 year postoperatively. |

| Patient reported outcome measure: Oxford Hip Score (OHS) | The Oxford Hip Score (OHS) is a hip specific questionnaire, consisting of 12 items concerning pain and daily functions. In the original scoring, each question is scored on a 5-point Likert scale, ranging from 1 (no pain/easy to do) to 5 (unbearable/impossible to do). The original total score ranges from 12 (best) to 60 (worst) points. It has been developed for total hip surgery. In the revised scoring, each question is scored from 0 (worst) to 4 (best), ranging the total score from 0 (worst) to 48 (best) (20). The revised scoring will be used in this study. | Preoperatively, and 6 weeks, 3 months and 1 year postoperatively. |
