It is based on a novel solution combining pre-operative planning and intra- operative navigation in a way that the natural anatomy of the joint before surgery can be restored as close as possible, or with exactly planned modifications. A surgical workflow has been developed which highly focusses on the registration and restoration of patient specific parameters instead of using generalized criteria like the Lewinnek safe zone. The feasibility of the approach has successfully been demonstrated by a laboratory setup of Sawbone models.Keyphrases: navigation system, pre operative planning, total hip replacement In: Patrick Meere and Ferdinando Rodriguez Y Baena (editors).
