Compressed allograft chips for acetabular reconstruction in revision hip arthroplasty.
We report the results of 24 acetabular reconstructions in which cemented polyethylene cups and tamped corticocancellous allografts were used for severe acetabular bone deficiency. Eleven hips had type-II (cavitary) bone deficiency and 13 had type-III (combined) defects. At a mean follow-up of 5.8 years, two components had migrated more than 5 mm and had accompanying radiolucent zones of more than 2 mm width. A radiolucency 5 mm wide was also seen in zone III of an acetabular implant which had not migrated. None of the patients had required revision because of loosening or infection.
