Introduction. The mid- or long-term results of acetabular revision total hip arthroplasty (THA) in Korea are rare. The purpose of this study is to report the mid-term radiographic results (> 5 years) of acetabular revision THA with porous-coated cementless Trilogy. ®. cup (Zimmer, Warsaw, IN, USA). Materials and Methods. Between 1999 and 2010, 77 patients (79 hips) had underwent acetabular revision THA with Trilogy. ®. cup. Eight patients (8 hips) were excluded due to death before 5-year follow-up, and 22 patients (23 hips) were excluded due to less than 5-year follow-up or follow-up loss. Forty-seven patients (48 hips) were included in our study. The mean age was 57.9 years (range, 36 to 76 years) and the mean follow-up was 9.8 years (range 5.0 to 16.2 years). The causes of revision were aseptic loosening in 40 hips, and septic loosening in 8 hips, respectively. Both acetabular and femoral revisions were performed in 14 hips and isolated acetabular revision was done in 34 hips. Preoperetive

Introduction. Reinforcement ring with allograft bone is commonly used for acetabular reconstruction of bone defects because it can achieve stable initial fixation of the prosthesis. It is not clear whether the allograft bone can function as a viable host bone and provide long-standing structural support. The purpose of this study was to assess to long-term survival of the reinforcement rings and allograft bone incorporation after acetabular revisions. Methods. We retrospectively reviewed 39 hips (37 patients) who underwent reconstruction of the acetabulum with a Ganz reinforcement ring and allograft bone in revision total hip arthroplasty. There were 18 females and 19 males with a mean age of 55.9 years (35–74 years). The minimum postoperative follow-up period was 10 years (10∼17 years). We assessed the

Introduction. Acetabular revision surgery is challenging due to severe bone defects. Burch-Schneider anti-protrusion cages (BS cage: Zimmer-Biomet) is one of the options for acetabular revision, however higher dislocation rate was reported. A computed tomography (CT)-based navigation system indicates us the planned direction for implantation of a cemented acetabular cup during surgery. A large diameter femoral head is also expected to reduce the dislocation rate. The purpose of this study is to investigate short-term results of BS cage in acetabular revision surgery combined with the CT-based navigation system and the use of large diameter femoral head. Methods. Sixteen hips of fifteen patients who underwent revision THA using allografts and BS cage between September 2013 and December 2017 were included in this study with the follow-up of 2.7 (0.1–5.0) years. There were 12 women and three men with a mean age of 78.6 years (range, 59–61 years). The cause of acetabular revision was aseptic loosening in all hips. The failed acetabular cup was carefully removed, and

Aim. Two stage revision is the most commonly used surgical treatment strategy for periprosthetic hip infections (PHI). The aim of our study was to assess the intra- and postoperative complications during and after two stage revision using resection arthroplasty between ex- and reimplantation. Method. In this retrospective cohort study, all patients treated with a two stage revision using resection arthroplasty for PHI were included from 2008 to 2014. During the first stage, the prosthesis was removed resulting in a resection arthroplasty without the use a PMMA spacer. During second stage, (cemented or uncemented) reimplantation of the hip prosthesis was performed. The cohort was stratified into two groups according to the length of prosthesis-free interval (≤10 weeks and >10 weeks). Data on complications during explantation, prosthesis-free interval, reimplantation, and after reimplantation was collected. The overall complication rate between both groups was compared using the chi-squared test. The revision-free and infection-free survival was estimated using Kaplan-Meier survival analysis. Results. Overall, 93 patients with hip PJI treated with two-stage revision performing resection arthroplasty were included, 49 had a prosthesis-free interval of ≤10 weeks, and 44 an interval of >10 weeks. A total of 146 complications was documented in the cohort. Patients were followed-up for a mean duration of 42.7 months, range: 13.1 – 104.6 months. Blood loss during reimplantation [n=25], blood loss during explantation [n=23], persistent infection during prosthesis-free interval [n=16], leg length discrepancy [n=13], and reinfection [n=9] were the most common complications. No complication showed a statistically significant difference between both groups except for wound healing disorder after reimplantation, which was more often reported in the group with > 10 weeks interval (p=0.009). A statistically significant increase of periprosthetic bone fractures (p=0.05), blood loss (p=0.039), and total number of complications (p=0.008) was seen with increasing
In revision total hip arthroplasty (THA), acetabular reconstruction while dealing with severe bone loss is a challenge. The porous tantalum revision acetabular shells have been in use for the past decade. Several reports have documented successful use at early to mid-term follow up. There is, however, very little literature around the long-term survival and quality of life outcome with the use of these shells. We reviewed the results of 46 acetabular revisions with Paprosky 2 and 3
Introduction. Modern acetabular cups require a convenient bone stock for sufficient cup fixation. Thereby, fixation stability is influenced by the chosen interference fit of the acetabular cup, the cup surface structure, circularity of the reamed acetabulum and by the acetabular bone quality. The ideal implantation situation of the cup is commonly compromised by joint dysplasia and
Although total hip arthroplasty is highly successful for treatment of osteoarthrosis of hip joint, it is skill demanding surgery to perform and even more challenging in case of revision with bone defects. There are many options available for reconstruction of acetabular bony defects. Here, we evaluate the outcome of acetabular bony defect reconstructed with trabecular metal augments in short term. We performed, 22 revision total hip arthroplasties and 6 primary total hip arthroplasties (total 28 in 28 patients) using trabecular metal augments to reconstruct acetabular defect between 2011 to 2015. Out of these 28 patients, 18 were males and 10 were females. Mean age of these patients was 61.2 years (range: 46 years to 79 years). Pre-operative templating was done for all cases and need for trabecular metal augments was anticipated in all cases. All cases were classified according to Paprosky classification for

Introduction. Acetabular reconstruction of a total hip arthroplasty (THA) for a case with severe bone loss is most challenging for surgeon. Relatively high rate of failure after the reconstruction surgery have been reported. We have used Kerboull-type acetabular reinforcement devices with morsellised or bulk bone allografts for these cases. The purpose of this study was to examine the midterm results of revision THA using Kerboull-type acetabular reinforcement devices. Patients and methods. We retrospectively reviewed 20 hips of revision THA (20 patients) between February 2002 and August 2010. The mean age of the patients at the time of surgery was 67.4 years (range 45–78). All of the cases were female. The mean duration of follow-up was 6.5 years (range 2.1–10.4). The reasons of revision surgeries were aseptic loosening in 10 hips, migration of bipolar hemiarthroplasty in 8 hips, and rheumatoid arthritis in 2 hips. We classified
Introduction. Failure of acetabular components has been reported to lead to large bone defects, which determine outcome and management after revision total hip arthroplasty (THA). Although Kerboull-type (KT) plate (KYOCERA Medical Corporation, Kyoto, Japan) has been used for compensating large bone loss, few studies have identified the critical risk factors for failure of revision THA using a KT plate. Therefore, the aim of this study is to evaluate the relationship between survival rates for radiological loosening and the results according to bone defect or type of graft. Patients and methods. This study included patients underwent revision THA for aseptic loosening using cemented acetabular components with a KT plate between 2000 and 2012. Bone defects were filled with beta Tricalcium phosphate (TCP) granules between 2000 and 2003 and with Hydroxyapatite (HA) block between 2003 and 2009. Since 2009, we have used femoral head balk allografts. Hip function was evaluated by using the Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) score and University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) activity. Acetabular defects were classified according to the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons (AAOS) classification. The postoperative and final follow-up radiographs were compared to assess migration of the implant. Kaplan–Meier method for cumulative probabilities of radiographic failure rate, and the comparison of survivorship curves for various subgroups using the log-rank test were also evaluated. Logistic regression was performed to examine the association of such clinical factors as the age at the time of operation, body mass index, JOA score, UCLA activity score, and AAOS classification with radiographic failure. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% CIs were calculated. Multivariate analysis was performed to adjust for potential confounders by clinical factors. Values of p < 0.05 were considered significant. Results. The patient background is shown in Table 1. The JOA score at the final follow-up increased significantly (p < 0.001). Radiographic failure was evaluated for revision THA with beta-TCP, HA, and bulk allografts. These survival rates are shown in Table 2 and the rate in the AAOS type IV group was significantly lower than that in the type III group (p = 0.033). The survival curves were significantly different between beta -TCP group and bulk allograft group (p = 0.036) (Table 3). Multivariate analysis showed that AAOS type IV defect was found to be a risk factor for radiographic failure (radiographic failure: OR: 15.5, 95% CI: 1.4–175.4, p = 0.032). Discussion. Our results of survival rate are similar to those reported by previous studies. However, by comparing the survival rates between beta-TCP group and bulk allograft group, beta-TCP is not suitable for bone graft reconstruction of
