title: Acyclic acetabular roof reconstruction for severe superior segmental acetabular bone loss in 2-stage surgery for infected hip arthroplasty.
abstract: Ensuring the stability of a cemented PROSTALAC cup (Depuy, Warsaw, Ind) in the presence of severe superior acetabular segmental deficiency is critical to the success of the first-stage surgery. We present an illustrative case and the surgical technique required to achieve this.
