Automated Impaction Improves Femoral Component Canal Fit in Total Hip Arthroplasty: A Matched Study
Our study results suggest that automated femoral canal impaction improved CF and reduced operative time without introducing additional risk of intraoperative fracture in THA. Of note, these results cannot determine whether automated impaction has clinical benefit with respect to pain, function, or survivorship of the femoral component.
