Abstrakt: Introduction: Acetabular revision surgery is a surgical challenge, especially when complex bone defects appear. This makes primary fixation and osseointegration of the implants difficult, which conditions the appearance of complications. Trabecular titanium implants attempt to solve these problems.
Objectives: To evaluate our clinical-radiological results, the survival of the implants and the appearance of mid-term complications in acetabular revision surgery in a series of 37 acetabular replacements with Paprosky type IIIA and IIIB bone defects in which a trabecular titanium Cup-Cage revision implant was used.
Material and Method: We conducted an observational, descriptive and retrospective study of 37 cases with complex acetabular defects (20 type IIIA and 17 type IIIB, five of them with pelvic discontinuity) in which the acetabular component was replaced by trabecular titanium cups between 2011 and 2019. We analysed clinical results (pain and functionality) and radiological parameters (restoration of the hip rotation centre and the mobilisation of the implants), as well as the appearance of complications.
Results: The mean follow-up was 61 months. We obtained a median improvement of 8 points on the Merlé D'Aubigné-Postel functionality scale and 6 points on the VAS scale of pain perceived by the patient. We recorded two cases of acetabular loosening, one case of dislocation and three surgical wound infections without affecting the implant.
Conclusions: The use of trabecular titanium Cup-Cage implants could be a valid option in acetabular revision surgery with complex acetabular defects, presenting good clinical and radiological results and in terms of complications and survival of the implants, mainly due to their good primary fixation and subsequent osseointegration.
