Abstract
Background: Total hip arthroplasty (THA) using a portable navigation system (PNS) incurs costs per procedure. However, it does not require a large console. This study aimed to compare the accuracy of acetabular cup placement using a pelvic alignment guide (PAG) attached to the pelvis and an accelerometer-based PNS in THA performed in the lateral decubitus position.
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 100 hips that underwent primary THA in the lateral decubitus position between July 2018 and January 2021. The PAG was used in 50 hips, whereas the PNS was used in the other 50. Cup placement accuracy was measured using postoperative computed tomography scans, comparing errors in inclination and anteversion angles. The surgical time, blood loss, and complications were recorded. The follow-up period was at least 2 years in all cases.
Results: The mean absolute error of the inclination angle was similar between the groups (the PAG group: 3.7° ± 2.3° [range, 0.0-9.0]; the PNS group: 3.7° ± 2.3° [range, 0.2-10.5], p = 0.705). The mean absolute error of the anteversion angle was significantly smaller in the PAG group than in the PNS group (3.0° ± 2.4° [range, 0.0-9.7] vs. 6.5° ± 4.8° [range, 0.3-17.3], p < 0.001). The PAG group had a higher proportion of hips within 5° and 10° of the target angle (64 vs. 42%, P = 0.028, and 100 vs. 74%, p < 0.001, respectively). The PNS group had six hips with anteversion errors of 15° or more. Surgical time and blood loss were lower in the PAG group. The PNS group had one dislocation, whereas the PAG group did not.
Conclusion: The accelerometer-based PNS did not demonstrate superior cup alignment accuracy compared to the PAG in THA performed in the lateral decubitus position. This finding informs surgeons that computer-assisted surgery is not necessarily superior to conventional THA using a PAG.
