The Rate of Correctly Planned Size of Digital Templating in Two Planes—A Comparative Study of a Short-Stem Total Hip Implant with Primary Metaphyseal Fixation and a Conventional Stem

The Rate of Correctly Planned Size of Digital Templating in Two Planes—A Comparative Study of a Short-Stem Total Hip Implant with Primary Metaphyseal Fixation and a Conventional Stem

(1) Background: Preoperative templating is mainly conducted on an anteroposterior pelvic overview X-ray. For short stem hip arthroplasty, the choice of the optimal size is especially crucial to avoid complications. Thus, the study aimed to determine if there is an increased rate of correctly planned...
