Abstract:
Computer-assisted procedures are becoming increasingly more relevant in orthopedics and trauma surgery. The data situation on these systems has improved in recent years but still has a low level of evidence. In particular, data on short-term or medium-term results on the use of these procedures are currently available. These could show that improved precision and reproducibility of the surgical procedures can be achieved by the use of computer-assisted procedures. Nevertheless, there is still no recommendation in the current guidelines for routine use.
