    Abstract:
    INTRODUCTION: This study aimed to investigate the accuracy of cup position and assess the changes in pelvic tilt during primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) in the lateral decubitus position using a new computed tomography (CT)-based navigation system with augmented reality (AR) technology. MATERIALS AND METHODS: There were 37 cementless THAs performed using a CT-based navigation system with AR technology in the lateral decubitus position and 63 cementless THAs performed using manual implant techniques in the lateral decubitus position in this retrospective study. Postoperative cup radiographic inclination and anteversion were measured using postoperative CT, and the proportion of hips within Lewinnek's safe zone was analyzed and compared between the two groups. The mean absolute values of navigation error were assessed. Intraoperative pelvic tilt angles were also recorded using navigation system. RESULTS: The percentage of cups inside Lewinnek's safe zone was 100% in the navigation group and 35% in the control group (p < 0.001). The mean absolute values of navigation error in inclination and anteversion were 2.9° ± 2.1° and 3.3° ± 2.4°, respectively. The mean abduction angle of the pelvis was 5.1° ± 4.8° after placing the patients in the lateral decubitus position and 4.1° ± 6.0° after cup placement. The mean posterior tilt angle was 6.8° ± 5.1° after placing the patients in the lateral decubitus position and 9.3° ± 5.9° after cup placement. The mean internal rotation angle was 14.8° ± 7.4° after cup placement. There were no correlations between the navigation error in inclination or anteversion and the absolute values of changes of the pelvic tilt angle at any phase. CONCLUSIONS: Although progressive pelvic motion occurred in THA in the lateral decubitus position, especially during cup placement, the CT-based navigation system with AR technology improved cup placement accuracy.
