A technique for removing an intrapelvic acetabular cup.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We describe a simple, retroperitoneal approach for the removal of acetabular components that have migrated into the pelvis. The dense fibrous tissue layer which surrounds the implant protects the iliac vessels during removal of the cup by this method.

INTRODUCTION Intrapelvic complications resulting from total hip arthroplasty are rare. Intrapelvic migration of the acetabular cup along with proximal migration of the femoral stem is one of these entities. Despite being a rare entity, there are serious complications. CASE REPORT We report a case image of an elderly lady who presented 6 months after total hip arthroplasty to her general pract...
متن کاملAcetabular Cup Revision
The use of acetabular cup revision arthroplasty is on the rise as demands for total hip arthroplasty, improved life expectancies, and the need for individual activity increase. For an acetabular cup revision to be successful, the cup should gain stable fixation within the remaining supportive bone of the acetabulum. Since the patient's remaining supportive acetabular bone stock plays an importa...
متن کاملA technique to remove a well-fixed titanium-coated rm acetabular cup in revision hip arthroplasty
A major concern during revision hip arthroplasty is acetabular bone loss and bleeding during the extraction of well-fixed cementless acetabular cup, because no interface exists between the host bone and the cup. Forceful removal of such component using curved gouges and osteotomes often leads to extended bone loss and compromises reimplantation of a new socket. In the following case report, we ...
متن کاملA novel method to assess primary stability of press-fit acetabular cups.
Initial stability is an essential prerequisite to achieve osseointegration of press-fit acetabular cups in total hip replacements. Most in vitro methods that assess cup stability do not reproduce physiological loading conditions and use simplified acetabular models with a spherical cavity. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of bone density and acetabular geometry on cup stabili...
متن کاملTransperitoneal removal of an intrapelvic acetabular component after total hip replacement and salvage of a destroyed acetabulum.
Intrapelvic migration of the acetabular component of a total hip replacement, with severe acetabular destruction making reconstruction impossible, is very rare. We present a patient in whom the component was removed using a laparotomy and a transperitoneal approach with subsequent salvage using a saddle prosthesis and a total femoral replacement.
