Purpose: Although various papers have reported on the clinical performance of cup retention with cementation of a new liner and bone grafting in the management of well-fixed cups with polyethylene wear and periacetabular osteolysis after total hip arthroplasty (THA), no systematic review of this topic has been published to date.

Methods: Medline, EMBASE and Cochrane Library were searched for articles published from January 1999 to January 2019 using "osteolysis" AND "well-fixed", "osteolysis" AND "retro-acetabular", "bone graft" AND ("retention" OR "retained" OR "stable") AND "cup", and "cemented liner" AND "well-fixed".

Results: Nine articles were selected for review (186 cases, 76.1 months mean follow-up). The overall revision rate was 11.3% (21 hips) most commonly due to aseptic loosening (9/186 hips), dislocation (8/186 hips), and liner wear progression (2/186 cases). The reported square size of osteolytic lesions ranged from a mean of 465.84 mm to a max of 4,770 mm. Almost all reported lesions treated with bone grafts resolved or did not progress 97% (72/74). All studies indicated improved pain and functional scores at follow-up.

Conclusion: Cementation of a new liner with periacetabular bone grafting provides an alternative option to isolated liner exchange and cup revision for the management of periacetabular osteolysis in well-fixed cups with a disrupted locking mechanism or unavailable exchange liner. Further higher quality studies are required in order to examine if the use of highly cross-linked polyethylene, highly porous-coated cups, hydroxyapatite-coated cups, and small-diameter cups influence the clinical outcome of liner cementation in well-fixed cups with periacetabular osteolysis.

Polyethylene liner exchange and bone grafting is an effective surgical option for the management of periacetabular osteolysis following total hip arthroplasty with well-fixed cups and intact liner locking mechanisms. We aimed to evaluate the revision-free survivorship and radiographic lesion progression after polyethylene liner exchange and bone grafting is performed for periacetabular osteolysis. A systematic review of the literature was performed.

The Stryker Exeter stem (Stryker, Kalamazoo, MI) has been in service for over 50 years and remains the most widely used cemented stem. Stem fracture is a rare complication, with recently reported rates of 1 in 10,000. We present a case of Exeter stem fracture 25 years following initial implantation as well as a large periacetabular defect secondary to osteolysis.

Background: The concept of dual mobility of total hip arthroplasties (THA) is a revolution in the prevention of dislocations and in the treatment of instability. Its use remains controversial in patients under 60 years old, providing poorer results with first generation cups coated with alumina. This study, carried out on modern dual mobility (DM) cups with a porous bilayer coating, in active patients under 60 years of age aimed to evaluate: (1) the mechanical survival of two latest generation DM THA, with failure defined as revision of acetabular or femoral implants for mechanical loosening, by comparing a tripod cup to a full pressfit cup, (2) to evaluate the complications, (3) to compare the rate of radiographic peri-prosthetic osteolysis between the 2 implants.

Aseptic loosening is the leading cause of late revision in total hip arthroplasty, primarily due to degenerative oxidation of polyethylene components, leading to wear particle formation and periacetabular osteolysis. This study aimed to analyze the oxidation levels in polyethylene liners and cemented cups retrieved from revision surgeries using Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and to explore the correlation between oxidation levels and factors such as head size, head material, fixation method, and implant survival time. Polyethylene liners and cups were analyzed post-revision surgery to assess oxidation levels, which were then compared to periacetabular bone loss measured by the Paprosky classification.

20-year Results of a 3D Titanium Mesh Coating Stability of 31 Artificial Cups.

Background: The aim of this work was to demonstrate the bony bond strength and resilience of a three-dimensional titanium mesh coating of an artificial acetabulum produced using the diffusion bonding technique. Under the extreme conditions ranging from abrasion-related osteolysis to acetabular perforation, the degree of residual bone and the integrity of the coating were determined. The remaining zones of the (still) stable bone connection are inevitably exposed to a greater load of the layer adhesion between the titanium mesh and the core shell.
