Obese populations present challenges for acetabular cup placement during total hip arthroplasty (THA). This study examines the accuracy of acetabular cup inclination and version in the obese patient with robotic-assisted computer navigation. A total of 105 patients underwent robotic-assisted computer navigation THA with a posterior approach. Groups were divided on body mass index (BMI, kg/m2) of < 30, 30-35, and > 35. There was no statistical difference between the BMI < 30 (n = 59), BMI 30-35 (n = 34) and BMI > 35 (n = 12) groups for acetabular inclination (P = 0.43) or version (P = 0.95). Robotic-assisted computer navigation provided accurate and reproducible placement of the acetabular cup within safe zones for inclination and version in the obese patient.
