Abstract

Addressing deficient acetabular bone stock is one of the most challenging aspects of revision total hip arthroplasty. Many different techniques have been described to restore acetabular bone stock and achieve stable cup fixation. Previous reports on the short- and medium-term results of acetabular revision with antiprotusio cages for different osseous defects have been promising. Now, with over 30 years of experience in its use, long-term clinical and radiographic follow-up data have been published. The data are also encouraging with regard to implant survival and patient satisfaction. Controversy remains as to when these devices should be used and which design is best indicated for specific patterns of acetabular bone deficiency. The best types of bone graft to use in reconstructing the acetabulum remains controversial as well. Despite these controversies, it appears that antiprotusio cages for acetabular revision are valuable in dealing with different acetabular deficiencies.
