A novel and secure technique of stemmed acetabular cup implantation in complex hip reconstructions: a comparative study and technical note.

Purpose: The stemmed acetabular cup (SAC) can be considered in several complicated situations. This type of prosthesis uses the iliac isthmus, which is most often preserved, thus allowing solid anchorage. Its implantation is prone to mechanical complications intraoperatively, such as extra-isthmic effraction, fracture, and early aseptic loosening.
