Computers have revolutionalized many aspects of our world, including medicine. Recent advancements in computer-aided surgical navigation have improved the precision and accuracy of alignment during surgery. Minimally invasive surgeries have been performed for a number of years. The combination of minimally invasive surgery, and computer aided surgical navigation often results in faster recuperation and longer lived prosthesis.
