Abstract
Use of the retroperitoneal approach has been well documented and used for intrapelvic cemented components or cement masses. We report on a single stage revision hip arthroplasty that incorporates a retroperitoneal approach for safe removal of an extensively entrapped porous-coated acetabular component and modular femoral head followed by an immediate reconstruction using a triflange acetabular prosthesis via a posterior approach.
