Abstract
Replacement arthroplasty of the hip may require restoration of bone stock to provide support for the acetabular implant and to restore anatomy and leg lengths. This article discusses the indications, surgical technique, results, and controversies of using bulk autograft bone to provide cup support for primary hip replacement in hip dysplasia. In addition, the use of allograft bone to restore bone stock in the revision situation is covered. The indications, surgical technique, and results of the use of both morsellized and bulk allograft bone are presented.
