摘要

The invention relates to a surgical device making it possible to control, during an arthroplasty of the hip, the relative positioning of the femur with respect to the pelvis. The device consists of a T-shaped bar (1) solidly attached to the pelvis using pins (8) or screws (9) clamped between the two short branches (5) (7) of the T, or using one screw passing through a longitudinal channel (2). The T-shaped bar supports cursors (3) (11) sliding along graduations (4). IMAGE
