Acetabular revision using a total acetabular allograft

Abstract: The most challenging aspect of an acetabular revision is the management of severe bone loss, which compromises implant fixation and stability. We present a case of failed acetabular revision with extensive bone loss (Paprosky Type 3b) in a 50-year-old woman with rheumatoid arthritis, which was treated using total acetabular allograft. At a follow-up of 1 year and 3 months, the allograft had united with the host bone. This is the first report of the use of a total acetabular allograft for revision total hip art… Show more

“…The deficit of bone stock can lead to serious technical difficulties for the implantation of the acetabulum in the condition of compromised columns, superior and medial walls of the acetabulum. Besides, as acetabular osteolysis progresses, the remaining bone stock cannot always provide correct installation of press-fit cups and screws (for primary mechanical stability of the component) and create favorable conditions for osteointegration, which correlates with the dates of the normal functioning of the endoprosthesis [5][6][7][8][9][10]. Presently, there are several surgical technics of acetabular revisions in patients with massive osteolysis for the restoration of acetabular bone stock.…”
