Download PDF

Abstract

Seven hips with protrusio acetabuli which showed complete or partial resolution of the protrusion after replacement with Ring's prosthesis are reported. It is suggested that this prosthesis offers a simple and effective method of treating painful protrusion into the pelvis; it allows healing of the medial wall of the acetabulum while avoiding many of the hazards of other methods of treatment.
