Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Medical Technology
  • Surgical Navigation

Background:

  • Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is a common procedure to address hip joint issues.
  • Accurate component placement is crucial for successful THA outcomes.
  • Navigation systems aim to improve precision in orthopedic surgery.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To clinically validate the workflow and navigation principles of the OrthoPilot THA Version 2.0 system.
  • To compare navigated intraoperative data with postoperative measurements for stem and cup positioning.
  • To assess the accuracy and reliability of the OrthoPilot THA Version 2.0 in a consecutive patient series.

Main Methods:

  • A consecutive series of 60 patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty was analyzed.
  • Navigated intraoperative data was collected and compared with postoperative measurements.
  • Key parameters assessed included acetabular cup positioning, femoral stem rotation, femoral offset, leg length, and range of motion.

Main Results:

  • 96.3% of 54 acetabular cups were positioned within the defined safe zone.
  • Rotational accuracy of femoral instruments was 65 degrees in 41 THAs.
  • Femoral offset showed medialization in 76% (6.05 mm) and lateralization in 14% (2.1 mm).
  • Leg length and range of motion data correlated well with navigated measurements.

Conclusions:

  • The OrthoPilot THA Version 2.0 demonstrates encouraging clinical validation for its workflow.
  • The navigation system shows potential for improving accuracy in total hip arthroplasty.
  • Further studies may be warranted to explore long-term outcomes and broader applications.
