Abstract:
[Objective]To evaluate the midterm clinical and radiographic results of revision hip arthroplasty by acetabular reinforcement ring (ARR) with impaction bone grafting. [Methods]Revision hip arthroplasty by ARR with impaction bone grafting of 8 hips was performed from May 2001 to December 2006. There were 5 males and 3 females with an average age of 53 years (range, 36~70 years).The mean BMI was 20 (range, 15~28). The mean interval between the primary arthroplasty and revision was 5 to 20 years (mean 6.7 years). The causes for revision were infective loosing in 2 and aseptic loosening in 6. In the 8 hips, 6 hips underwent a revision total hip arthroplasty, 2 hips received replacement of the acetabular component. Consecutive radiographs were compared to evaluate component conditions and the influence of bone deficiency to fix the prothesis was analyzed. Harris hip scores (HHSs) were determined before surgery and at the most recent follow-up examination. The Kaplan-Meier survivorship analysis was used to estimate the probability of survival of the prothesis.[Results]Seven hips were available for complete clinical and radiographic analysis. One patient died for myocardial infarction. The mean follow-up period was 4.5 years (range, 1.5~7.1 years).The mean preoperative Harris hip score of 30(range, 20~64) points improved to 88 (range, 74~94) points at the time of final follow-up, the pain and function socre improved from 13.8 and 11.5 to 40.3 and 39.9 respectively. All patients had severe limp before revision. At the time of final follow-up, 5 patients still had slight limp and 1 patients had moderate limp.Five hips had an excellent result. Infective osteolysis and migration were seen in 2 hips, which need re-revision. Heterotopic ossification developed in 2 hips . Kaplan-Meier survivorship at 4.5 years was 63% with repeat revision or radiographic loosening.[Conclusion]ARR with impaction bone grafting is an effective approach to treat massive acetabular bone defect in revision hip arthroplasty, the midterm result is acceptable, but any possible reason for infection must be monitored.
