%X These surgical procedures have their own challenges, limitations, and success rate. The choice of surgical approach will depend on many factors including the surgeon's choice, type of pathology, bone stock, age of the patient, and experience of the surgeon. Whichever approach is used for total hip arthroplasty (THA), the primary goals of the surgery would be pain relief and enhancement in the quality of the patient's life suffering from hip pathologies. To further understand the advantages and potential pitfalls associated with different surgical approaches, we conducted a review study comparing different surgical approaches for THA in terms of their clinical and functional outcomes. All the studies done on surgical approaches used in THA published articles in the English language and from 2015 onward were included in the review. The databases searched were COCHRANE, MEDLINE, PEDRO, CINHAL, etc. Search engines that were searched were Google Scholar, Pub Med, and Science Direct. As per the inclusion criteria, out of 50 studies, 26 studies were included in the study which underwent critical analysis. Considering all the factors reviewed from the literature, the posterior approach or posterolateral approach is optimally beneficial.
