摘要

Acetabular osteolysis associated with socket loosening is one of the main long-term complications of total hip arthroplasty. In case of major bone loss, where < 50% host bone coverage can be obtained with a porous-coated cementless cup, it is generally agreed that a metal ring or cage in association with a cemented component and allograft bone should be used. In order to promote allograft bone consolidation and incorporation, we have associated demineralised bone matrix (DBM, GraftonA (R) A Flex) to the construct ion. Here we describe the technical details of major acetabular reconstruction using the Kerboull acetabular reinforcement device with allograft bone and DBM. This device has a hook that must be placed under the teardrop of the acetabulum and a plate for iliac fixation. The main advantages of this device are help in restoring the normal centre of hip rotation, guiding the reconstruction and partially unloading the graft. The Kerboull acetabular reinforcement device has provided a 92% survival rate free of loosening at 13-year follow-up in a consecutive series of 60 type III and IV deficiencies. Our preliminary results using DBM indicate faster allograft consolidation and remodelling.
