Aims

Various surgical techniques have been described for total hip arthroplasty (THA) in patients with Crowe type III dislocated hips, who have a large acetabular bone defect. The aim of this study was to evaluate the long-term clinical results of patients in whom anatomical reconstruction of the acetabulum was performed using a cemented acetabular component and autologous bone graft from the femoral neck.

Methods

A total of 22 patients with Crowe type III dislocated hips underwent 28 THAs using bone graft from the femoral neck between 1979 and 2000. A Charnley cemented acetabular component was placed at the level of the true acetabulum after preparation with bone grafting. All patients were female with a mean age at the time of surgery of 54 years (35 to 68). A total of 18 patients (21 THAs) were followed for a mean of 27.2 years (20 to 33) after the operation.
