Abstract
To avoid malalignment of components during hip resurfacing arthroplasty (HRA), we used a computed tomography (CT)-based navigation system for guidance. This study aimed to evaluate the clinical accuracy and precision of HRA performed using the CT-based navigation systems. HRA was performed on 17 hips guided by the CT-based navigation systems. We measured cup alignment deviation, deviation of the stem position, and alignment from the plan by image matching between pre-operative and post-operative CT images. Cup anteversion was within 5° of that in the plan in all cases. Cup inclination was within 5° of that in the plan in 82.4% and within 10° in all cases. The angular difference of the stem was within 5° in all cases, and the entry point of the stem was within 4mm in all cases. The CT-based navigation system for HRA guided accurate component placement according to the plan.
