The Accuracy and Ability of Preoperative Templating to Restore Femoral Offset in Calcar-Guided Short-Stem Total Hip Prosthesis through Direct Anterior Approach
Abstract:The aim of this study was to assess the applicability and ability of preoperative templating to restore femoral offset and hip length with a calcar-guided short-stem implant design in total hip arthroplasty through the direct anterior approach. Preoperative measurements were performed of femoral offset, hip length, and stem size and compared with the perioperative placed prosthesis in 100 patients undergoing primary total hip replacement through direct anterior approach. Additionally, the pre- and postoperativ… Show more
