Abstract

A surgical planning computing system and related surgical method include identifying an anatomical landmark of a patient's bony anatomy in a three-dimensional anatomical image and determining positioning criteria for an orthopedic prosthesis to be implanted into the patient's bony anatomy. The positioning criteria may define an alignment between the anatomical landmark and a feature of the orthopaedic prosthesis. A three-dimensional model of the orthopaedic prosthesis is positioned in the three-dimensional model based on the positioning criteria to provide a surgical plan for the implantation of the orthopaedic prosthesis.
