Robotic System Navigation Developed for Hip Resurfacing Prosthesis Surgery

چکیده
This paper discusses the design of a navigation system developed to assist surgeons in the procedures of Hip Resurfacing prosthesis surgeries. In conventional surgery, mechanical jigs are used to obtain a correct alignment for the metal prosthesis, however it is a very time consuming process. In order to solve this problem emerges a new robotic system, named HipRob. The system is composed by a pre-operative sub-system for planning the prosthesis correct alignment and a flexible robot to be co-manipulated by the surgeon during the drilling procedures on the femur head. The real-time navigation of this robotic system is based on the registration between the femur model, constructed from the CT scan, and the surface constructed with ultrasound images, acquired during the surgical procedures. Experimental results, performed in a femur phantom, show that the robot location errors are around 2 mm.

Computer-Assisted Orthopaedic Surgery and Robotic Surgery in Total Hip Arthroplasty
Various systems of computer-assisted orthopaedic surgery (CAOS) in total hip arthroplasty (THA) were reviewed. The first clinically applied system was an active robotic system (ROBODOC), which performed femoral implant cavity preparation as programmed preoperatively. Several reports on cementless THA with ROBODOC showed better stem alignment and less variance in limb-length inequality on radiog...
متن کاملAdverse reaction to metal debris: metallosis of the resurfaced hip
The greatest concern after metal-on-metal hip resurfacing may be the development of metallosis. Metallosis is an adverse tissue reaction to the metal debris generated by the prosthesis and can be seen with implants and joint prostheses. The reasons patients develop metallosis are multifactorial, involving patient, surgical, and implant factors. Contributing factors may include component malposi...
متن کاملFracture of the stem of the femoral component after resurfacing arthroplasty of the hip.
Resurfacing arthroplasties of the hip are being undertaken with increasing frequency and the complications associated with this procedure are well documented. We have encountered a further problem with a fracture of the centralising peg of the femoral component in a prosthesis which had been in situ for three years.

When Policy Topic is covered Metal-on-metal total hip resurfacing with a device system approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) may be considered medically necessary as an alternative to total hip replacement when the patient: Is a candidate for total hip replacement; AND Is likely to outlive a traditional prosthesis; AND Does not have a contraindication for total hip resur...

BACKGROUND Articular Surface Replacement (ASR) hip prostheses, which have metal-on-metal bearing surfaces, were manufactured by DePuy Orthopaedics (Warsaw, Indiana) for use in both conventional total hip arthroplasty and hip resurfacing. Both the ASR XL Acetabular System and the ASR Hip Resurfacing System were recently recalled worldwide by the manufacturer. This report summarizes an analysis b...
