This study aimed to investigate whether the use of CT-based navigation enhances: 1) the accuracy of cup placement; and 2) the achievement rate of required range of motion (ROM). Additionally, we investigated the impact of using a large femoral head and dual-mobility liner on the achievement rates. This retrospective study analyzed 60 manual and 51 CT-based navigated primary total hip arthroplasties performed at a single facility. Postoperative CT scans and CT-based simulation software were employed to measure the cup orientation and to simulate the ROM. We compared the absolute errors for radiological inclination (RI) and radiological anteversion (RA) between the two groups. We also examined whether the simulated ROM met the required ROM criteria, defined as flexion > 110°, internal rotation > 30°, extension > 30°, and external rotation > 30°. Furthermore, we performed simulations with 36 mm femoral head and dual-mobility liner.Aims
