Introduction:

Since2007, we have used CT-based fluoroscopy-matching navigation system (Vector Vision Hip Ver.3.5.2, BrainLAB, Germany) in revision total hip arthroplasty. This system completes the registration procedure semi-automatically by matching the contours of fluoroscopic images and touching 3 adequate points to the contours of 3D bone model created in the computer. Registration procedure using fluoroscopic figures has finished before making surgical incision. It needs no elongation time during the operation. The objective of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of CT-based fluoroscopy-matching navigation system in revision THA.

Material and method:

We analysed the acetabular cup in consecutive 33 hips with both intra-operative and post-operative alignment data (based on navigation system and CT evaluation) We further compared these measurements with results from primary THA. Data for primary THA were therefore obtained from 40 consecutive patients who underwent primary THA between August 2007 and May 2013 using the same navigation system by postero-lateral approach. We aimed the cup angle for Revision THA as following, the inclination: 40 degrees, the anteversion: 20 degrees Anteversion on the navigation system must be adjusted by the pelvic tilt.

Introduction

Since2007, we have used CT-based fluoroscopy-matching navigation system (Vector Vision Hip Ver.3.5.2, BrainLAB, Germany) in Total hip arthroplasty. This system completes the registration procedure semi-automatically by matching the contours of fluoroscopic images and touching 3 adequate points to the contours of 3D bone model created in the computer. Registration procedure using fluoroscopic figures has finished before making surgical incision. It needs no elongation time during the operation. The accuracy of navigation system depends on the techniques of registration used for the navigation and secure fixation of the dynamic reference markers. These could be affected by the different type of approaches. The objective of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of CT-based fluoroscopy-matching navigation system in THA and compare the cup position by anterolateral and posteolateral approaches.

Material and method

We analysed the acetabular cup in consecutive 132 hips with both intra-operative and post-operative alignment data (based on navigation system and CT evaluation), including 65 cases with anterolateral approach(Modified Watson Jones) (Group AL) and 67 cases with posterolateral approach(Group PL). We aimed the cup angle for THA as following, the inclination: 40 degrees, the anteversion: 20 degrees. Anteversion on the navigation system must be adjusted by the pelvic tilt.
