Abstract:The aim of this study was to explore a novel method to determine the orientation of acetabular prosthesis in total hip arthroplasty (THA) by refering to the anatomical landmarker of acetabular notches. Forty-one normal developmental hips were included in the present study. The acetabulums were reamed according to standard surgical procedures of THA on life-size 3D printing pelvis models. The inferior edge of acetabular cup were placed (1–5) mm proximal and distal to the proximal line of the anterior and poster… Show more
