Abstract
This study aims to validate a modified circle theorem method for the calculation of true version of the acetabular component on anteroposterior x-rays with intra-operative version data derived from robotic assisted total hip arthroplasty (THA). Planar anteversion measurements recorded intraoperatively in 80 THAs were correlated to measurements on anteroposterior radiographs. The mean anteversion of the cohort measured by the robotic system and on plain radiography was 21.2° ± 2.0° and 19.9° ± 3.4° respectively and 97.5% of cases were in a 30% relative error. The correlation between the true and planar measurements of anteversion on plain radiographs was strong (Pearson correlation coefficient of 0.9422). We conclude that the circle theorem method can be validated with data from robotic guided THA.
