Abstract
Intrapelvic extrusion of cement during total hip arthroplasty is a frequent occurrence. We report a case in which the intrapelvic cement mass broke free 3 years after the primary procedure and migrated proximally to lie against the posterior abdominal wall, resulting in intractable groin pain. The patient was relieved of pain after removal of the cement mass.Entities:
