Introduction: There is a wide range of commercially produced revision implants for adequate reconstruction of acetabular large bone defects today, however, it is not always possible to achieve long-term survival of these implants. There is an increasing number of scientific publications concerning the use of custom-designed 3D components, which make it possible not only to achieve stable fixation and connect the pelvic bones but also to restore hip joint biomechanics.
Objectives: To evaluate the positioning of 3D acetabular implants after revision hip arthroplasty and its impact on clinical and functional outcomes.
Introduction: The rate of proximal femur fractures (PFF) in the structure of musculoskeletal system injuries among all fractures of long bones ranges from 3.9 to 18%. According to Russian Ministry of Health 2020 data, the incidence of femoral fractures in Russia was up to 61 cases per 100,000 population (90,000 per year); and femoral neck fractures incidence was 4 times higher among people over 75 years of age.

Durability is the main challenge associated with any tribological pair, with the aim of minimizing wear and thus avoiding problems with aseptic loosening of components and osteolysis. When polyethylene inserts are used in young patients, we should always consider their disadvantages, e.
