Abstract
The posterior approach to the hip was first popularized by Von Langenbeck in the 1870s and later modified by Moore,1 Gibson,2 and Marcy.3 All of these modifications included release of the posterior soft tissue sleeve posterior to the gluteus medius and minimus muscles. They varied with respect to the precise location of skin incision and the exact description of the soft tissue exposure. All resulted in a posterior dislocation of the femoral head in relationship to the acetabulum.
