Conservative treatment of a traumatic periprosthetic acetabular fracture in alumina-alumina THA
European Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery & Traumatology, 05/05/09
Jawish R et al. - A 45-year-old male patient sustained a traumatic periprosthetic acetabular fracture involving the posterior column after a hybrid alumina-on-alumina total hip arthroplasty with cementless metal-backed acetabular cup. The X-rays showed no signs of loosening or osteolysis and demonstrated complete remodeling with congruous contour of the osseous bed of the component. The authors believe that if the resistance of the alumina implants to trauma is considered a real breakthrough, the cementless cup could be another benefit to avoid THA revision in type-2 acetabular fractures.
