Computer-assisted surgery offered no advantages over conventional methods in accuracy of total hip arthroplasty component placement, according to study results.
Researchers obtained historical data on 317 patients who underwent total hip arthroplasty (THA)…
Between February 2006 and March 2008, 119 patients underwent THA using the computer-assisted surgery (CAS) system, and 198 patients underwent THA using conventional instrumentation…
