While advancements in intramedullary nail fixation have made it a relatively efficient procedure, the placement of the lag screw into the femoral head still remains a challenging step in the procedure. Inaccurate placement can lead to screw cut-out, one of the most commonly reported complications with IM nail fixation. Previous work has shown that the lag screw position is an important factor in reducing screw cut-out. This step of the procedure can be time demanding and often requires several intraoperative radiographs for accurate placement. Recently developed computer-assisted navigation systems provide surgeons with the ability to track screw placement in real-time. This could allow for improved screw placement and potentially reduce radiation exposure to the patient and surgeon. To date, the potential advantages of computer-assisted navigation have not been examined.
