Abstract
Purpose
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the usefulness of a modular total hip system for combined anteversion in cementless modular total hip arthroplasty.
Materials and Methods
We performed twenty cementless modular total hip arthroplasty procedures. The patients lay in lateral position and 15°internal rotation of the thigh. The surgeon inserted an acetabular cup component first, followed by a femoral component. He selected an appropriate modular neck component using an intra-operative manual combined anteversion test. All patients underwent post-operative computed tomography.
