Intraoperative Fluoroscopy Decreases Magnitude and Incidence of Leg-Length Discrepancy Following Total Hip Arthroplasty
This study supplies evidence that use of intraoperative fluoroscopy is likely beneficial in reducing the magnitude of LLD following THA and reducing the incidence of outlier LLDs >5 mm, >10 mm, and <15 mm.
