Employing Conventional Instrumentation with Computer-Aided Surgery in Total Knee Replacement — Making it Simple

Our computer-aided surgery (CAS) in total knee replacement (TKR) results in less outliers and accurate implant positioning. The described technique deals with single parameters at a time. Conventional jigs with CAS make an easier transition for surgeons employing standard instrumentation. Convention...

The described technique deals with single parameters at a time. Conventional jigs with CAS make an easier transition for surgeons employing standard instrumentation. Conventional jigs also allow greater control and stability compared to free-hand technique and serve as a system check if CAS fails. CAS allows immediate feedback of saw blade resection and application of cutting guides. By employing the hybrid technique, surgeons can perform navigated TKR by following a simple workflow pathway, cutting down the operating time, and saving on inventory costs.https://doi.org/10.1177/201010581302200402
