Customised three-dimensional printed revision acetabular implant for large defect after failed triflange revision cup.


ABSTRACT: Aseptic loosening is the most common cause for total hip arthroplasty revision. Acetabular cup revision is a significant challenge in the presence of a large bone defect. One of the options for cup revision in the presence of a large bone defect is the recently introduced customised three-dimensional (3D)-printed reconstruction. We present the case of a 68-year-old woman successfully treated with a customised revision acetabular implant for the failure of triflange cup in the presence of large acetabular defect. The modern orthopaedic surgeon must have full knowledge of customised 3D-printed reconstruction to have as a reserve solution for difficult hip revision surgery.
