One of the most common causes of hip and knee joint replacement failure is implant misalignment. Implant misalignment, or “misplacement”, can occur even when an experienced surgeon handles the procedure. A slight misalignment made during surgery of only a few degrees can cause increased post-operative discomfort and an inability to regain full mobility.

With the help of Computer-Assisted Surgery (CAS), surgeons can significantly reduce the chance of misalignment. The ORTHOsoft™ Navitrack® Navigation System represents one of the most significant advancements in the CAS field. It combines industry-leading technology and a surgeon’s skill to help improve knee and hip replacement outcomes.
