Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Arthroplasty Research

Background:

  • Revision total hip replacement (RTHR) is complex.
  • Adequate surgical exposure is critical for RTHR success.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To outline essential pre-operative planning considerations for RTHR.
  • To emphasize the need for extensive exposure in revision cases.

Main Methods:

  • Pre-operative planning for RTHR.
  • Selection of patient positioning.
  • Determination of incision location and management.
  • Planning for exposure equipment and extension techniques.

Main Results:

  • Pre-operative planning is essential for RTHR.
  • Specific planning elements include positioning, incision management, and exposure strategies.
  • RTHR often necessitates more extensive acetabular and femoral exposure compared to primary procedures.

Conclusions:

  • Thorough pre-operative planning is a cornerstone of successful revision total hip replacement.
  • Anticipating and planning for extensive exposure is vital for acetabular and femoral components.
