“…They indicated that the increased risk of implant dislocation in overweight and obese patients may reflect a more complicated surgical procedure; in these patients, excessive adipose and muscle tissue mass in the hip region can make the surgical procedure more difficult and result in suboptimal orientation of the prosthetic components [16]. Our findings indicate that implant impingement occurred much less frequently in obese patients if implant positioning is correctly performed.…”

“…Azodi et al demonstrated that a high BMI was significantly associated with an increased risk of implant dislocation following primary THA [16]. They indicated that the increased risk of implant dislocation in overweight and obese patients may reflect a more complicated surgical procedure; in these patients, excessive adipose and muscle tissue mass in the hip region can make the surgical procedure more difficult and result in suboptimal orientation of the prosthetic components [16].…”

“…Navigation systems have been developed to intraoperatively facilitate correct component positioning and provide anatomical hip angular information [14,15]. These systems are also used for intraoperative kinematic analyses other than those performed for correct component positioning.…”
