Total Hip Arthoplastry Revision by Dual-mobility Acetabular Cup Cemented in a Metal Reinforcement: A 62 Case Series at a Minimum 5 Years Follow-up
Total Hip Arthoplastry Revision by Dual-mobility Acetabular Cup Cemented in a Metal Reinforcement: A 62 Case Series at a Minimum 5 Years Follow-up
Total hip arthroplasty (THA) requires bone reconstruction in case of severe acetabular injury, with risk of dislocation, especially postoperatively. Dual-mobility cups have proved effective in preventing dislocation in THA revision for instability, but their behavior when cemented in a metal reinforcement has been little studied.
The present study assessed results for a dual-mobility cup cemented in a metal reinforcement, in terms of aseptic loosening and postoperative instability.
A single-center continuous series of 62 patients receiving such an assembly in THA revision was assessed retrospectively at a minimum 5 years' follow-up.
