For precise preoperative planning in total hip arthroplasty (THA), we developed a technique of computed tomography (CT)-based computer preoperative planning and compared this technique with the single X-ray and template method generally used. The subjects of this study were 42 hips in 38 patients who underwent THA using a cementless total hip system. Preoperatively, a standard anteroposterior X-ray of the hip was taken, and conventional preoperative planning was done with a template of the total hip system. Transverse images were obtained using a helical CT scanner, and a CT-based computer preoperative plan was performed on true coronal slice images of the proximal femur reconstructed from CT data. Postoperatively, 29 hips (69%) showed good proximal fit of the femoral component to the medial endosteal line. Of the 20 hips with good proximal fit on preoperative X-ray planning, 12 hips had good proximal fit on postoperative X rays. Sensitivity and specificity of the proximal fit on X-ray templating were 41 and 23%, respectively. In 27 of 28 hips with good proximal fit on reconstructed CT images preoperatively, the postoperative X ray revealed good proximal fit. Sensitivity and specificity of the proximal fit on computer planning were 93 and 86%, respectively. Twelve hips with good proximal fit on preoperative templating, the reconstructed images, and the postoperative X ray had 20 degrees or less of combined femoral neck anteversion and external rotational contracture of the hip on the X-ray table. Eight hips with good proximal fit on preoperative templating and proximal poor fit on the reconstructed images had 17-65 degrees of combined version and rotational contracture. In 16 hips with poor proximal fit on preoperative templating and good proximal fit on the reconstructed images, the combined version and rotational contracture ranged from 17 to 69 degrees. When combined femoral neck anteversion and external rotational contracture of the hip is less than 15 degrees, the simple X-ray and template method might be sufficient for THA planning. Otherwise, the CT-based method of preoperative planning is recommended.
