Core Tip

Core Tip: Osteonecrosis of the femoral head is a common disease. Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is an effective treatment for advanced osteonecrosis of the femoral head. Robotic-assisted THA has been shown to increase accuracy and precision during surgery. We report the clinical outcomes of robotic-assisted THA and manual THA in the same patient with osteonecrosis of the femoral head. Combined with the analysis of cases indexed in PubMed, robotic-assisted THA resulted in a better Harris hip score and forgotten joint score than manual THA, and the patient felt better 1 year after surgery.
