| Popis: |
Failure to achieve postoperative stability is disappointing for both surgeons and patients after revision total hip arthroplasty. In particular, when available revision options have been exhausted. We describe our modification of previously reported surgical techniques without revising any component in a high-risk female patient with persistent hip dislocation despite multiple cup revisions using different implants. To stabilize the hip through the posterolateral approach, a synthetic polyethylene tube was used. This relatively simple, modified technique may be a solution in disappointing cases with failure to achieve hip stability in revision total hip arthroplasty. |
