Abstract

Go to

CAOS (Computer Assisted Orthopedic Surgery) has been introduced into the field of artificial joint replacement to increase the accuracy of implant placement. The advocates of CAOS insist that total hip replacement arthroplasty using CAOS will decrease dislocation, the wear rate, impingement and limb length discrepancy by increasing the accuracy and consistency of implant placement. However, we have to maximize the good results of total hip replacement arthroplasty by developing CAOS with understanding its disadvantages and limits, so we have reviewed CAOS using a critical eye for its negative aspects.
