Abstract
Chronic pelvic discontinuity is a distinct and unique challenge seen during revision total hip arthroplasty (THA) in which the superior ilium is separated from the inferior ischiopubic segment through the acetabulum, rendering the anterior and posterior columns discontinuous. The operative management of acetabular bone loss in revision THA is one of the most difficult challenges today. Common treatment options include cage reconstruction with bulk acetabular allograft, custom triflange acetabular component, a cup-cage construct, jumbo acetabular cup with porous metal augments, or acetabular distraction with a porous tantalum shell with or without modular porous augments.Entities:
