The popularity of yoga and the prevalence of total hip arthroplasty (THA) have simultaneously increased in the United States. Accordingly, one can assume that the number of THA patients practicing yoga has increased. Certain yoga poses reach the extremes of hip range of motion, potentially leaving patients vulnerable to dislocation. To date, 2 cases of late posterior prosthetic hip dislocations during yoga have been reported; however, there have been no reports of anterior prosthetic hip dislocations. We present one case of late Anterior Prosthetic Hip dislocation during yoga in a patient who underwent THA via the direct anterior approach. Prosthetic hip dislocation during yoga may be a growing concern. We provide additional evidence in support of recommendations for THA patients to safely practice yoga.
