OrthAlign was granted FDA 510(k) clearance of Lantern Hip handheld technology for direct anterior total hip arthroplasty with the patient in the supine position. Lantern Hip is the latest addition to the Lantern platform, joining existing applications for total knee, revision knee and partial knee arthroplasty.
Lantern Hip builds upon the legacy of HipAlign. Next-generation accelerometers and gyroscopes offer orthopedic surgeons a streamlined workflow, real-time navigation for cup positioning, and restoration of leg length and offset. The technology enables individualized cup positioning compared across multiple planes, including the functional pelvic plane, anterior pelvic plane and coronal plane, with live pelvic tracking. Designed for personalized patient care, Lantern Hip eliminates the need for pre-operative imaging or capital equipment and is compatible with most implant systems, making it suitable for the ASC setting.
“Adding the total hip application to the Lantern platform is an enhancement that not only broadens our capabilities, but also reinforces our commitment to providing innovative solutions,” said Eric Timko, Chairman and CEO of OrthAlign. “As technology becomes the standard of care in total joint replacement, it’s essential to deliver solutions that are clinically, operationally, and economically efficient. Lantern Knee and Balance have been a great success for OrthAlign and now, with Lantern Hip, surgeons can confidently and easily take technology to any site of service for their total hip replacements.”
