[Polished stem displacement from a cement mantle--a case report].
Dislocation is a possible complication after primary and revision hip arthroplasty. Closed reduction is the first treatment option. Displacement of polished Exeter stem from a cement mantle during closed reduction of dislocated hip after revision hip arthroplasty is described. The patient was re-operated, new non-polished stem was cemented without any further complications. Placement of the cement mantle over superior and lateral part of the stem may prevent such complication.
