Custom Triflange Acetabular Implants for Complex Hip Revisions: A Case Series.
Surgical Technology International 2024 April 9
Revision total hip arthroplasty (THA) presents a formidable challenge when addressing extensive acetabular defects, particularly in severe cases classified under Paprosky types 3A and 3B and American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons types 3 and 4. Traditional methods often fall short, prompting the potential use of custom triflange acetabular components or patient-specific acetabular implants (PSAIs). These implants are specifically designed to conform to an individual's anatomy, aiming to enhance defect reconstruction and pelvic stabilization. This case series describes the utilization of advanced 3-dimensional printing and rapid prototyping technologies to construct customized acetabular components, which can be instrumental in enabling precise preoperative planning and surgical execution for these difficult acetabular cases and potentially leading to improved surgical outcomes.
