Revision arthroplasty is challenging, especially in severe acetabular bone loss cases. Metal augments have emerged as a viable option for managing such complex defects.
We report a case of a 59-year-old male who underwent re-revision arthroplasty using a metal augment for severe acetabular bone loss, restoring limb length and anatomical hip center following a failed revision total hip arthroplasty in a case of neglected inferior hip dislocation. The patient presented with significant pain, instability, and limited mobility. Postoperative outcomes showed considerable improvement, with a Harris Hip Score increasing from 37 to 82 at the 12-month follow-up.
In conclusion, this case report demonstrates the effectiveness of metal augments in revision arthroplasty for managing significant bone loss. Careful patient selection and expert surgical techniques can provide a reliable solution for ensuring stable fixation and improving clinical outcomes in complex revision surgeries.
翻修关节成形术具有挑战性,尤其是在髋臼严重骨缺损的病例中。金属增强物已成为处理此类复杂缺损的一种可行选择。
我们报告一例59岁男性患者,其在因忽视性髋关节下脱位导致初次翻修全髋关节置换术失败后,使用金属增强物进行再次翻修关节成形术,以修复严重髋臼骨缺损,恢复肢体长度和髋关节解剖中心。患者表现为严重疼痛、不稳定和活动受限。术后结果显示有显著改善,在12个月随访时,Harris髋关节评分从37分提高到82分。
总之,本病例报告证明了金属增强物在翻修关节成形术中处理严重骨缺损的有效性。仔细的患者选择和专业的手术技术可为确保复杂翻修手术中的稳定固定和改善临床结果提供可靠的解决方案。
