Impact of functional evaluation 3D software on impingement and clinical outcomes in robotic-arm assisted total hip arthroplasty
Individualized component positioning, even when aided by 3D FCPA, does not eliminate the risk of impingement. The concept of a universal "safe zone" may be inadequate to prevent impingement, emphasizing the need for patient-specific implant positioning strategies based on spinopelvic mobility. While impingement did not significantly impact PROMs, optimizing implant positioning through robotic-assisted techniques may contribute to improved long-term outcomes and reduced dislocation risk.
