Abstract
PURPOSE: Rotational acetabular osteotomy (RAO) is used to treat developmental hip dysplasia (DDH). It requires detailed anatomical knowledge of the pelvic anatomy and three-dimensional cognitive skills. We addressed whether a computer navigation system combined with a preoperative computed tomography-based plan enabled surgeons to perform RAO safely and reliably through a mini-incision regardless of their level of experience with performing osteotomies. METHODS: We enrolled 24 patients (25 hips) with DDH (radiographic grade 0 or 1 osteoarthritic changes: Tönnis classification). Using the navigation system, four surgeons performed RAO via a mini-incision transtrochanteric approach. Two experienced surgeons treated 15 patients (16 hips). Two surgeons with low-level RAO experience treated nine patients (9 hips). Operative data and clinical and radiographic outcomes were compared. Average follow-up was 3.2 years. RESULTS: There were no significant differences in the (1) incision length, operation time, or intraoperative blood loss; (2) numerical pain rating scale score and Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index Scale score at 1, 2 years, and at the latest follow-up; (3) preoperative and postoperative acetabular coverage of the femoral head, postoperative joint congruency, postoperative medial and distal femoral head displacement, or acetabular thickness; and (4) positional accuracy of iliac, pubic, and ischial osteotomy and accuracy of acetabular coverage of the femoral head. CONCLUSIONS: Clinical and radiographic outcomes of RAO with navigation were not influenced by the surgeons' level of osteotomy experience.
