Hip Arthroplasty

Abstract

Total hip arthroplasty is an art of reproducing the biomechanics of the hip joint. A good pre-operative planning is essential, which is a challenge as it is done in 2D radiographs for a 3D joint. Using conventional techniques, it is even harder to reproduce the pre-operative plan intraoperatively. Technical help minimises the errors. Computer-assisted navigation is one such help. It helps with the reproduction of the plan as it gives intra-operative real-time feedback to the surgeon. Thus, surgeon can achieve pre-planned position and orientation of the prosthesis, reproducing the biomechanics. This in turn helps with leg length and offset change as planned. This helps with balancing the soft tissues and minimising the complications.
