Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to review the clinical indications for acetabular reconstruction in patients with underlying peri-prosthetic segmental and cavitary defects, evaluate steps in pre-operative planning, and present the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS) and Paprosky classification systems to categorize acetabular defects. We also present a review of the current surgical techniques to reconstruct the acetabular socket which includes a cementless acetabular component with morselized bone, structural allograft, jumbo and oblong cups, reinforcement rings, bone cages, custom triflange acetabular constructs, and trabecular metal components.
