- Abstract
Total hip arthroplasty is one of the most successful surgical procedures to relieve the pain of patients with end-stage femoral head necrosis and hip osteoarthritis [[2]]. Comment on article by Muñoz-Mahamud et al.: Can the intra-operative measurement of the diameter of the femoral head help surgeons to choose the best size of the acetabular cup? In patients with severe femoral head necrosis, the gap between the estimated cup size from intra-operative measurement of the femoral head and the pre-operative templated cup size was relatively large.
