Abstract

Periprosthetic or bony impingement in total hip arthroplasty (THA) has been correlated to dislocation, increased wear, reduced postoperative functionality with pain and/or decreased range of motion (ROM). We sought to study the accuracy and assess the reliability of measuring bony and periprosthetic impingement on a virtual bone model prior to the implantation of the acetabular cup with the help of image-free navigation technology in an experimental cadaver study. Impingement-free ROM measurements were recorded during minimally invasive, computer-assisted THA on 14 hips of 7 cadaveric donors. Preoperatively and postoperatively the donors were scanned using computed tomography (CT). Impingement-free ROM on three-dimensional CT-based models was then compared with corresponding, intraoperative navigation models. Bony/periprosthetic impingement can be detected with a mean accuracy limit of below 5 degrees for motion angles, which should be reached after THA for activities of daily living with the help of image-free navigation technology.
