Abstract:Background
The aim of this study was to evaluate the precision and feasibility of patient-specific instruments (PSI) in total hip arthroplasty (THA) as compared to the traditional free-hand (FRH) approach.
Methods
During the period of January 1, 2021 to December 31, 2022, a randomized allocation was used for patients receiving unilateral primary THA to either the PSI or conventional operation group. The placement and size of the PSI were specifical… Show more
