Abstract

Background: Utilization of the direct anterior approach (DAA) for total hip arthroplasty (THA) has risen in popularity. Accurate implant placement is a critical factor that influences patient outcomes. The goal of this study was to compare the accuracy and precision of fluoroscopy with imageless optical navigation in DAA THA. Methods: This was a cohort study of 640 consecutive primary DAA THAs performed with intraoperative fluoroscopy (n = 300 patients) or imageless optical navigation (n = 304 patients). Accuracy was compared by measuring acetabular cup inclination, anteversion, and leg-length discrepancy (LLD). The proportion of implants placed within the Lewinnek safe zone and those placed within a more precise target of 40 ± 5° inclination and 20 ± 5° anteversion was evaluated. Results: According to the Lewinnek criteria, there was no difference in the percentage of implants placed within both inclination and anteversion targets (fluoroscopy: 90.3%; navigation: 88.8%, P = 0.519). Using the more precise targets, navigation increased the implants positioned correctly for both inclination and anteversion (fluoroscopy: 50.3%; navigation: 65.6%, P < 0.001). Navigation increased the proportion of implants positioned within the target anteversion zone (fluoroscopy: 71.3%; navigation: 83.8%, P < 0.001) but not inclination (fluoroscopy: 71.9%; navigation: 76.9%, P = 0.147). The mean LLD was higher with the use of fluoroscopy compared with navigation (5.5 mm, standard deviation: 4.1; 4.6 mm, SD: 3.4, P < 0.005). No difference in dislocation rate was observed (P = 0.643). Conclusion: Both fluoroscopy and imageless optical navigation demonstrated accurate acetabular implant positioning during DAA THA. Navigation was more precise and associated with improved acetabular anteversion placement and restoration of LLD. Navigation is an accurate alternative to fluoroscopy with decreased radiation exposure.
