Total hip arthroplasty (THA) has been quoted as one of the most successful and cost-effective procedures in Orthopaedics. The last decade has seen an exponential rise in the number of THAs performed globally and a sharp increase in the percentage of young patients hoping to improve their quality of life and return to physically demanding activities. Hence, it is imperative to review the various applications of technology in total hip arthroplasty for improving outcomes. The development of state-of-the-art robotic technology has enabled more reproducible and accurate acetabular positioning, while long-term data are needed to assess its cost-effectiveness. This opinion piece aims to outline and present the advances and innovations in total hip arthroplasty, from virtual reality and three-dimensional printing to patient-specific instrumentation and dual mobility bearings. This illustrates and reflects the debate that will be at the centre of hip surgery for the next decade.
全髋关节置换术（THA）被认为是骨科领域最成功且最具成本效益的手术之一。在过去十年中，全球范围内进行的全髋关节置换术数量呈指数级增长，希望改善生活质量并恢复高强度体力活动的年轻患者比例也大幅增加。因此，审视技术在全髋关节置换术中的各种应用以改善手术效果势在必行。先进机器人技术的发展使得髋臼定位更加可重复且精确，不过仍需要长期数据来评估其成本效益。这篇观点文章旨在概述并介绍全髋关节置换术的进展与创新，从虚拟现实和三维打印到定制化器械以及双动轴承。这阐明并反映了未来十年髋关节手术核心的争论焦点。
