Abstract:
Management of acetabular deficiency in revision of hip arthroplasty can be extremely challenging. A successful outcome requires careful preoperative planning, identification of complex defects, and stable reconstruction. Now, acetabular reconstructions that are conducted with autograft and allograft filling the defect and special techniques are effective. As more revisions of total hip arthroplasty take place in clinic, a systematic approach to diagnosis and treatment becomes more important. This paper reviews the progress made in classification and reconstruction of acetabular defects.
