Several methods of treatment are available for acetabular revision associated with bone loss. Jumbo cups (minimum diameter of 62 mm in women, 66 mm in men, or 10 mm larger than the normal contralateral acetabulum) are often useful for large defects. The purpose of this study is to report a large jumbo cup series with an average 10-year follow-up. A total of 196 jumbo cups in 186 patients with a minimum of 2-year follow-up were available for review. Harris hip score improved from 44 preoperatively to 72 postoperatively. Survivorship was 98% at 4 years and 96% at 16 years. Five revisions and two resection arthroplasties were performed for failure. In conclusion, porous jumbo cup acetabular revision with supplemental screw fixation provides good to excellent intermediate- and long-term outcomes.

Background: The increasing global performance of total hip arthroplasty (THA) has led to a rise in revision surgeries, primarily due to cup failure, with aseptic loosening and periprosthetic infection being common causes. Various techniques and implants, including jumbo cups (JCs), manage residual bone loss post-cup removal, facilitating enhanced surface area for improved host bone contact, and osteointegration. The purpose of the study was to determine the outcomes of acetabular revision arthroplasty using JC implants over a 20-year follow-up period by reporting overall survivorships, complications leading to re-revision, and surgical strategies in re-revision.

The number of hip revision surgeries is expected to increase in recent years, and reconstruction of acetabular defects is a challenge for joint surgeons. The principle of reconstruction of acetabular defects is to achieve initial and long-term stability between the prosthesis and the host bone. With the development of surgical techniques, prosthetic materials, and revision concepts, there is an urgent need for new acetabular bone defect evaluation systems to meet clinical needs.

Article Synopsis
  • Pelvic discontinuity (PD) poses challenges in revision hip surgeries, and this study investigates a modified cup-cage approach that positions the cup based on the cage for better alignment.
  • The study aims to assess patient outcomes after the modified technique, focusing on Harris hip scores, survivorship rates without complications, and the prevalence of surgical issues over a minimum two-year follow-up.
  • Conducted between 2013 and 2022, the analysis included 30 patients, examining their recovery and functionality after the procedure, with an average age of 61 years.

Background: Acetabular reconstruction options in the setting of substantial bone deficiency (Paprosky 3A and 3B) remain limited. Custom triflange acetabular implants are one choice for this challenging problem. However, few studies have reported on survivorship beyond 3 to 5 years.

The management of acetabular bone loss during revision arthroplasty is a challenging problem. Not only are there a wide variety of potential defects, but the location of these defects can also drastically change the hip center of rotation, stability, and biomechanics. First, the assessment of the severity and location of bone loss preoperatively is highlighted as it is imperative to evaluate the acetabular bone stock remaining.
