Abstract
Cementless acetabular components are routinely used in revision hip surgery. Nevertheless, few investigators have assessed their retention and efficacy over the long term. This occurs mainly in cases which originate from moderate to severe bone losses (cavitary and or segmental) requiring the use of morselized and or bulk bone graft. Our objective in the present study is to report the outcome of 42 patients with 43 cementless acetabular revisions with bone graft who were operated by the same surgeon. The report is based on the clinical and radiographic evaluation of the patients alive at 167 months of follow-up.
