Introduction: Acetabular reconstruction is a challenging problem in orthopaedic oncology, especially in extended defects (Paprosky Type 3A and Type 3B). In revision total hip arthroplasty (THA), 1 option is trabecular metal (TM) augments with a porous metal acetabular component. This study evaluated the use of TM augments in periacetabular malignant bone disease.
Methods: 15 patients were identified from our institutional database from 2000 to 2020 with either Paprosky Type 3A or Type 3B acetabular bone loss due to periacetabular malignancies that underwent at least 1 complex THA reconstruction with TM augments. Postoperative complications were documented, and clinical and radiographic outcomes were analysed. Radiological loosening or revision of the acetabular component were defined as endpoints.
Results: There were 7 primary and 8 metastatic cancer patients. 5 were Type 3A and 10 were Type 3B defects after tumour resection. The average follow-up time was 23.8 (range 1.5-47) months. 1 patient required revision for acetabular component loosening after 7 months from the initial implantation. An additional 4 patients required surgical intervention for infection, they had stable TM augments at latest follow-up.
Conclusion: TM augments with a porous metal acetabular component may be an alternative to the traditional cemented constructs.

Several studies suggested that total hip arthroplasty (THA) was more technical demanding following previous pelvic osteotomy (PO), resulting in poor outcomes compared with primary THA. However, the other studies regarding this topic had reported contradictory results. Therefore, we conducted this meta-analysis to compare the clinical results and other parameters between total hip arthroplasty following pelvic osteotomy and primary total hip arthroplasty.

Monoblock acetabular components with ceramic liners could reduce liner fracture risks during modular acetabular component assembly. This study aims to confirm the safety and clinical performance of the monoblock Maxera Cup in THA.

Background: The ideal anteversion at which the acetabular and femoral components for a total hip arthroplasty (THA) should be implanted is still a subject of debate. One alignment philosophy being explored is restoration of individual constitutional femoral and acetabular anteversion. This study aimed to measure combined anteversion in a healthy hip population and understand the expected phenotypes and ranges for constitutional hip alignment.

Introduction: Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is widely used for active, elderly patients with femoral neck fractures (FNF). Compared to THA for osteoarthritis, THA for FNF is associated with a higher incidence of dislocation and reoperation. Robotic assistance may improve component positioning and leg-length restoration in THA, but its use in FNF has not been described.

Accurate acetabular component positioning is crucial for the success of total hip arthroplasty (THA). Malplacement of the acetabular component increases the risk of post-surgery complications, most notably dislocation.1 Furthermore, malposition can also result in wear of the polyethylene liner, limited range of motion, and osteolysis.
