Summary

Impaction bone grafting with cement effectively fixes femoral and acetabular components in revision hip arthroplasty, even with severe bone loss. This technique shows promising results for complex hip revision surgeries.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Biomaterials Science

Background:

  • Revision hip arthroplasty presents challenges, particularly with significant femoral and acetabular bone loss.
  • Traditional fixation methods may be less effective in cases of extensive bone defects.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the efficacy and safety of impaction bone grafting with cement for femoral and acetabular component fixation in revision hip arthroplasty.
  • To assess clinical outcomes and complications in patients with severe bone loss undergoing revision hip surgery.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective review of 70 revision hip arthroplasties utilizing impaction bone grafting with cement.
  • Assessment of femoral and acetabular component stability, bone loss (Endoklinik grades 3 and 4), and clinical scores (Harris hip, Merle D'Aubigne Postel).
  • Follow-up duration averaged 37 months.

Main Results:

  • Sixty-eight percent of femurs exhibited severe bone loss.
  • Mean Harris hip score was 84; mean Merle D'Aubigne Postel score was 15.4.
  • Minimal implant migration observed: one case of massive femoral subsidence (>10 mm), six cases of cup migration (>5 mm).
  • One revision for sepsis; no aseptic loosening.
  • Five surgical technique-related complications.

Conclusions:

  • Impaction bone grafting with cement is a viable and effective technique for stabilizing femoral and acetabular components in revision hip arthroplasty.
  • The technique demonstrates good clinical outcomes and acceptable complication rates in patients with extensive bone loss.
  • Supports the use of this method for complex hip revision cases with significant bone defects.
