Acetabular revision with intramedullary and extramedullary iliac fixation for pelvic discontinuity

Journal of Arthroplasty Jul 22, 2020

Frenzel S, Horas K, Rak D, et al. - This study was intended to present acetabular revision with an intramedullary and extramedullary iliac fixation for pelvic discontinuity. Researchers performed a single-center retrospective cohort study to prospectively obtain data of 49 patients (35 female, 14 male) suffering from unilateral periprosthetic pelvic discontinuity (PD) treated with an asymmetric acetabular component between 2009 and 2017 [(the mean follow-up was 71 months (21-114)]. Complications were documented and evaluated radiographic and functional outcomes. The data highlighted that an asymmetric acetabular component with extramedullary and optional intramedullary iliac fixation is a reliable and safe treatment method for periprosthetic PD resulting in good clinical and radiographic mid-term outcomes.
