[Norian SRS augmentation in revision of acetabular cup of total hip arthroplasty. A follow up of six patients].
This article reports on bony acetabular reconstruction combined with load-bearing cementation of the acetabular components in revision hip arthroplasty. In six cases bone defects were filled with osteoconductive cement Norian SRS--if needed after cancellous bone grafting. Thereupon the primary load stable cementation of an acetabular reconstruction ring or an acetabular basket was done in combination with cementation of an inlay. Patients were examined according to the scores of Harris and Merle d'Aubigné. The patient's satisfaction was used as another criterion and X-rays were taken upon consent. Four of five patients included in the evaluation achieved good or excellent results.
