Abstract
Acetabular augmentation is a challenge for complex primary and revision hip surgery. Several methods exist to recreate a supportive, hemispherical acetabulum where a defect exists, however, these can be complex, expensive, time consuming, and limited by available size and shape. We present a simple, inexpensive, quick and customisable method of acetabular augmentation using cementless polyethylene with titanium coating. The first case is presented with follow-up up to 8 years.
期刊介绍:
HIP International is the official journal of the European Hip Society. It is the only international, peer-reviewed, bi-monthly journal dedicated to diseases of the hip. HIP International considers contributions relating to hip surgery, traumatology of the hip, prosthetic surgery, biomechanics, and basic sciences relating to the hip. HIP International invites reviews from leading specialists with the aim of informing its readers of current evidence-based best practice.
The journal also publishes supplements containing proceedings of symposia, special meetings or articles of special educational merit.
HIP International is divided into six independent sections led by editors of the highest scientific merit. These sections are:
• Biomaterials
• Biomechanics
• Conservative Hip Surgery
• Paediatrics
• Primary and Revision Hip Arthroplasty
• Traumatology
