Abstract
Despite major developments in the field of revision surgery in recent decades, the management of severe acetabular deficiency at revision arthroplasty, complex primary total hip replacement or after pelvic tumour resection remains a complex problem. The options available for the management of severe bone loss include the use of uncemented press-fit cups with or without metal augments, impaction allografts, allograft-prosthesis composites, custom-made triflange cups, hip transposition, reconstruction prostheses or various combinations of these. This paper describes defect classification, various treatment options, clinical outcomes, survival of reconstruction, and typical complications in relation to treatment.
