Disassembly of a one-piece metal-backed acetabular component. A case report.

چکیده
We report a case of late dissociation of a one-piece metal-backed acetabular component, associated with a prolific soft-tissue reaction to the polyethylene debris. The polyethylene liner was not visible on the radiographs. The metal-backed shell could not be removed because of bone ingrowth. We recommend that modular systems be utilised in cementless arthroplasty of the hip and that radiographic markers be incorporated in the polyethylene of the acetabular cup.

Polyethylene wear in cemented metal-backed acetabular cups.
We examined radiographic polyethylene wear in 233 cemented total hip arthroplasties (201 patients) with either a metal-backed or a non-metal-backed acetabular cup. All patients had identical cemented one-piece titanium femoral stems with a femoral head diameter of 28 mm. The mean linear wear rate was 0.11 mm/yr in metal-backed sockets and 0.08 mm/yr in non-metal-backed sockets (p = 0.0002). The...
متن کاملA Biomechanical Model of Acetabular Cup Deformation in Metal-on-Metal and Conventional Metal- Backed Component Designs
Introduction: Press-fit acetabular components are susceptible to deformation following implantation in an under-reamed socket, with excessive deformation of metal-on-metal (MOM) components potentially leading to increased torsional friction, component micromotion and implant loosening. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of design and material considerations on induced deformat...
متن کاملAcetabular revision with morsellised allogenic bone graft and a cemented metal-backed component.
Failure of total hip arthroplasty with acetabular deficiency occurred in 55 patients (60 hips) and was treated with acetabular revision using morsellised allograft and a cemented metal-backed component. A total of 50 patients (55 hips) were available for clinical and radiological evaluation at a mean follow-up of 5.8 years (3 to 9.5). No hip required further revision of the acetabular component...
متن کاملDissociation of the S-ROM metal-backed polyethylene acetabular liner--a case report and literature review.
The authors report a case of early failure of a total hip arthroplasty with dissociation of the polyethylene liner of an S-ROM Oblong Cup*, which presented as a dislocation. Initial closed reduction of the dislocation was not possible. Open exploration of the hip revealed that the modular Poly Dial* polyethylene acetabular liner had become dislodged from the acetabular cup. The liner was revise...
متن کاملMetal-backed acetabular components with conventional polyethylene: a review of 9113 primary components with a follow-up of 20 years.
The Norwegian Arthroplasty Register has shown that several designs of uncemented femoral stems give good or excellent survivorship. The overall findings for uncemented total hip replacement however, have been disappointing because of poor results with the use of metal-backed acetabular components. In this study, we exclusively investigated the medium-to long-term performance of primary uncement...
