Abstract
PURPOSE: Larger-diameter (≥40 mm) femoral heads decrease the incidence of post-operative dislocation in total hip arthroplasty (THA). This study was conducted to discover whether larger-diameter femoral heads result in greater range of motion of the hip with the use of a computed tomography (CT)-based navigation system. METHODS: Thirty-nine primary THAs were performed via a posterolateral approach using a CT-based navigation system. The stem was inserted in the femur in line with the original femoral neck anteversion. Considering the range of motion during various daily activities which could occur without impingement, the cup anteversion was decided at 10 ° increments according to the stem anteversion. While the cup inclination was set at 40 ° in order to avoid a high inclination angle to prevent the edge roading between the HXLPE liner and ceramic head. After implantation, trial liners and femoral heads were used with either 28 or 40 mm diameter. Maximal hip flexion, extension, abduction, external rotation in extension at 0° and internal rotation angles in flexion at 90 ° were measured. The differences between the ranges of motion with the 40-mm and 28-mm heads were tested. The results were assessed with paired Student t-tests. RESULTS: The ranges of motion in flexion, extension, abduction and internal rotation angles improved significantly with the 40-mm heads compared with the 28-mm heads. The ranges of motion of cases where maximal flexion angle was 90° or less were excluded, improved significantly with the 40 mm heads. CONCLUSIONS: We concluded that the larger-diameter 40-mm femoral prosthetic heads result in greater ranges of motion in flexion, extension, abduction and internal rotation.
