Does the placement of acetabular cups differ between right and left sides for a right-handed surgeon operating through a direct lateral approach? A comparative study
Cup inclination is affected by the surgeon's handedness when operating through a direct lateral approach and using a freehand technique, while anteversion is less affected. Furthermore, the difference is greater with cemented cups.
