چکیده

Total Joint Arthroplasty (TJA) has proven to be very successful in the treatment of patients suffering from endstage osteoarthritis of the hip and knee [1,2].

It is predicted that the number of Total Hip Arthroplasties (THAs) in the United-States is estimated to grow to 572,000 and Total Knee Arthroplasties (TKAs) to 3.48 million by the year 2030 [3]. The current healthcare cost containment environment in conjunction with a more patient-centered and clinical outcomes approach emphasizes both patient satisfaction and patient throughput [4].
