El Bitar JF, et al. Orthopedics. 2015;doi:10.3928/01477447-20150105-57.
Robotic-assisted total hip arthroplasty was found to be a close match for postoperative imaging results in predicting cup inclination and anteversion angles as well as leg-length and global offset changes, according to recently published data.
Researchers studied 61 patients who underwent robotic-assisted total hip arthroplasty (THA) using a mini-posterior approach between June 2011 and December 2012. Robotic and imaging data were evaluated by two bli...
