The reference in preoperative planning

With HIP-PLAN®, surgeons can plan hip replacement in three dimensions, giving them much more information than conventional X-rays and thus improving the quality of their preoperative planning. HIP-PLAN® is recognised as the reference in 3D hip preoperative planning(1) (2)(3).

 

  • More precise 3D planning of implant sizes(1)(2)(3);
  • More precise orientation of implants, particularly in the axial and sagittal planes(3)(4);
  • Control over cup overhang and cam effect risks;
  • Anticipation of stem stability in the femoral canal by evaluating the bone densities in contact with the implant;
  • Controlled reconstruction with implant simulation for visualising the end result.

Greater precision for better results

HIP-PLAN® planning is easily reproducible in the operating theatre, allowing surgeons to more accurately restore leg length, femoral offset and anteversion of the prosthetic components compared to 2D planning(1)(2)(3)(4). HIP-PLAN® thus accompanies surgeons on a daily basis to help them overcome the main hip replacement challenges:

 

  • Reduced risk of postoperative dislocation(1)(2)(3)(12);
  • Reduced risk of uneven leg lengths(1)(2)(3);
  • Improved abductor muscle efficiency and walking(5)(9)(10)(12);
  • Reduced risk of head-insert decoaptation (edge loading)(1)(2)(3), known to increase joint wear(11)(12) and the risk of noise (squeaking)(6);
  • Reduced risk of cam effect (impingement), known to increase the risk of postoperative dislocation(2)(4)(8).

 

 

Better preparation for greater surgical efficiency

Surgeons can anticipate their choice of implants and reconstruction objectives, meaning they are better prepared. This increases the chances of a well-controlled reconstruction, with no surprises, while optimising the materials required for the procedure.

 

  • Optimisation of materials required during surgery by anticipating the implant sizes and instruments;
  • Planning report to guide surgeons throughout the procedure;
  • Numerous simple checks for verifying neck resection accuracy and the position of the implants in relation to the planning;
  • More reliable and efficient surgery.
