title: Surgical tactics in the revision of the hip prosthesis pin.
abstract: Parallel to the rise in the number of primary hip arthroplasties the number of complications is also increasing, especially aseptic loosening of cemented implants and uncemented implants with a smooth surface. The loosening of the implant is very often accompanied by the destruction of bone stock, which requires reconstruction.<br /> On the base of 217 cases operated in the years 1997-2000 the authors present the methods of treating deficits in the proximal femur using special instruments, bone transplants, reconstructive systems, and revision prostheses. The so-called biological attitude to the problem is preferred. Operative tactics are presented in respect to bone deficits classified according to Mallory.
