OBJECTIVE To investigate the development and application of the computer aided surgery systems in the joint surgery field. METHODS The literatures were extensively reviewed to analysis the usefulness of current active, semi-active and passive computer aided surgery systems in solving the clinical problems of joint surgery. RESULTS Several computer aided surgery systems have met the high technique demands, such as the precision of anatomical position and orientation, the accuracy of normal limb alignment restoration, the optimum of instrumentation control in arthroplasty, peri-articular osteotomy and minimally invasive procedure. CONCLUSIONS Computer aided joint surgery systems facilitate precise surgical techniques to achieve ideal operative outcome.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D007596	Joints	Also known as articulations, these are points of connection between the ends of certain separate bones, or where the borders of other bones are juxtaposed.	Joint
D019060	Minimally Invasive Surgical Procedures	Procedures that avoid use of open, invasive surgery in favor of closed or local surgery. These generally involve use of laparoscopic devices and remote-controlled manipulation of instruments with indirect observation of the surgical field through an endoscope or similar device.
