TL;DR: These tools successfully were introduced into the clinical practice of surgery and showed the following: There exist unpredictable and large variations in the initial position of patients' pelves on the operating room table and significant pelvic movement during surgery and during intraoperative range of motion testing.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of a mechanical acetabular alignment guide with computer placement of the socket
Anthony M. DiGioia,Branislav Jaramaz,Anton Y. Plakseychuk,James E. Moody,Constantinos Nikou,Richard S. LaBarca,Timothy J. Levison,Frederic Picard +7 more
TL;DR: There is a clear need to develop more reliable tools than were used or anatomically based alignment strategies to provide reproducible and accurate acetabular alignment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mini-incision technique for total hip arthroplasty with navigation
TL;DR: Patients in the mini-incision group had significant improvement in limp and ability to climb stairs compared with the traditional group, and there was no significant difference between groups for pain, function, or range of motion at the 1-year follow-up examination.
