Abstract

Purpose

To evaluate the clinical and radiological outcomes of acetabular reconstruction using a reinforcement device (RD) in combination with bone grafting in Paprosky type 2 and 3 acetabular bone defects.

Methods

Morselised bone grafts were used to fill cavitary defects and a structural graft placed in the superior part of the acetabulum in cases of cranial bone defects, with a proximally fixed RD (Protetim, Hódmezővásárhely, Hungary) implanted in all cases. Construct stability, device positioning, hip centre of rotation and medial acetabular wall thickness were evaluated radiologically. Survival rates were estimated with aseptic loosening and revision for any reason as endpoints.

Results

The 28 patients (29 hips) were followed for 4.8 ± 2.7 years (range, 2-10.4 years). Hip centre of rotation was lowered in all cases, with no significant differences between the mean values obtained post-operatively and at the last follow-up. Medial acetabular wall thickness and RD abduction angle were maintained up to the last evaluation. Bone grafts integrated by two years post-operatively in the majority of cases. Kaplan-Meier survival rates were 85.2 % and 82.1 % for the two endpoints at ten years.

Conclusions

Acetabular reconstruction using a proximally fixed RD in combination with bone grafting offered good mid-term results in the treatment of acetabular bone defects. In cases of severe bone loss, the structural allograft allowed placement of the RD with ischial contact, rendering survival rates similar to RDs with both iliac and ilioischial fixation. The technique was successful in restoring and maintaining medial acetabular bone stock and construct stability for up to ten years.
