Navigated Hip Replacement
Navigated Hip Replacement
Naviswiss, a Swiss company located in Brugg, specializes in navigation systems for orthopedic surgery. Their system, developed in collaboration with leading orthopedic surgeons, has been in use globally since 2018.
The navigated hip replacement procedure involves pre-surgical planning using X-ray images. During surgery, the system aids in the precise insertion of the prosthesis, enhancing its longevity and reducing complications. Temporary navigation markers are attached to the pelvis and femur to measure joint alignment, ensuring accurate anatomical recreation.
- Referencing: Markers are attached to measure anatomy.
- Navigation: The system displays exact angles for acetabular cup implantation and allows fine-tuning of leg length during femoral stem insertion.
- Documentation: The entire procedure is documented, ensuring precision and accuracy.
The navigation system functions similarly to a car's GPS, guiding the surgeon to the planned implant positions while allowing for real-time adjustments.
