Background: Assessment of 3-dimensional (3D) femoral head coverage is critical in evaluating, preoperative planning, and treating hip dysplasia.
Purpose: To (1) propose a mathematical model to establish 3D femoral head coverage using conventional computed tomography (CT), (2) determine the correlation of 2D parameters with 3D coverage, and (3) characterize the patterns of dysplasia based on 3D morphology.
Study Design: Cross-sectional study; Level of evidence, 3.

Purpose: During reconstructive surgery, knee and hip replacements, and orthognathic surgery, small misalignments in the pose of prosthesis and bones can lead to severe complications. Hence, the translational and angular accuracies are critical. However, traditional image-based surgical navigation lacks orientation data between structures, and imageless systems are unsuitable for cases of deformed anatomy.

Surgery might be needed to correct TMJ anatomy and function and, in cases where pathologies coexist, a two-stage corrective surgery might be needed. However, the current fashion of single-stage procedures is feasible with the aid of new technologies such as computer-assisted surgery (CAS).
