Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Biomaterials Science
  • Reconstructive Surgery

Background:

  • Revision total hip arthroplasty (rTHA) requires careful component selection to address complex bone defects and restore hip biomechanics.
  • Achieving stability, proper joint offset, and leg length equalization are primary goals in rTHA.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To outline component selection strategies for revision total hip arthroplasty.
  • To detail femoral and acetabular implant options based on bone defect size and characteristics.

Main Methods:

  • Review of current component options for femoral reconstruction in rTHA.
  • Analysis of acetabular reconstruction techniques, including porous coated cups, cages, and custom implants.
  • Evaluation of acetabular liner modifications for enhanced stability.

Main Results:

  • Femoral component choice depends on the degree of bone loss, with options including fully porous coated stems, modular tapered stems, and proximal femoral replacements.
  • Acetabular defects can be managed with second-generation porous cups for smaller defects or with cages and custom triflange implants for larger defects.
  • Acetabular liners offer enhanced stability through adjustments in version, dual mobility, or femoral head constraint.

Conclusions:

  • Component selection in rTHA is tailored to individual patient bone loss and anatomical considerations.
  • A range of femoral and acetabular implants, along with specialized liners, allows for successful reconstruction in complex revision cases.
  • Optimizing component selection is key to achieving stable and functional outcomes in revision total hip arthroplasty.
