The results of cementless cups (HAP or Ti) with additional divergent pegs and acetabular reconstruction with graft in failed THAThe concept of “migration en bloc”(1993) JL. Lerat, C. Falaise LYON - France EFORT Congress (June 2001- Rhodes)
Special Cup with pegs for revision 1st model : «Spring» ( Landanger-Depuy 1993 - 2000 ) Metallic cup ( Ti ). Hydroxyapatite coating 6 holes for 6 pegs fixed with the cup by threading Alumine on polyethylene
1rst model (alumine on polyethylene) : 128 cases 6 divergent pegs bring usually a good primary stability : 10 and 15 mm (in the majority of the cases) or 20, 25, 30 mm
The most frequent cause of revision is cemented cups with bone defects corresponding to the amount of cement: 91 cases
Revision of cemented acetabular rings previously used for revision : 4 cases
Material • 128 acetabular revisions (11 infected) • 75 complete revisions • Previous operations : 1 to 8 • Previous surgery : 9.8 ± 5 years • Females : 88 • Mean age : 64.4 ± 11 Ys • Mean follow-up : 4.6 y ± 1.7 (1 to 7 y) • One surgeon, one technique
Acetabular reconstruction } 93 % • Iliac crest autograft : 85 • Bone from reaming : 33 • Opposite femoral head : 1 Simple prolongation of the posterior incision

Paprosky : Type I (n = 31) Easy cases : graft into the holes, sufficient contact of the cup with the host bone
Paprosky : Type II (n = 63) A (n = 20) B (n = 22) C (n = 21) • The cup may be stabilised between the 2 columns • Press-fitting the acetabular component is often possible • 1 iliac crest is sufficient
Paprosky : Type II (n = 63) - Autograft into the holes and for the roof reconstruction- Bone is impacted with the « trial cup » - Stabilisation by press-fitting the cup between the 2 columns + 6 pegs
Paprosky :Type III (n = 32) III A (n = 22) III B (n = 10) Massive bone graft is necessary for the reconstruction of : - the centre - the columns - the roof
The reconstruction of a column is made after the cup has been fixed to the host bone and to the graft 1 - Fixation of the component with pegs2 - Spongious autograft is placed on the HAP coating 3 - The bone block is then fitted on the cup by 1 or 2 pegs (or 1 adjusting srew) inside outside
The use of screws is not recommended usualy Adjusting screws may be used to fit the graft against the cup Or for the primary stabilisation of the cup It is recommended to replace the screws by pegs for definitive fixation
Stability of the implants • Press-fit alone : 45 • Stability attained by the use of pegs : 83 The divergent pegs bring a complementary stability to cup
Stability of the implants 6 years The stabilisation of the cup is obtained with graft incorporation and remodelling under load-bearing conditions
Weight load-bearing Immediate (partial) : 25 4 to 6 weeks : 48 2 to 3 months : 55
Complications • Dislocations (2 first months) : 9 • Trochanteric non-unions : 6 (4 had previous non-unions) • Ossifications : 1 • Infections : 3 (recurrence for 3 of 11 previous infections)
Operation Cup + stem 75 cases • Blood loss : 1075 ml ± 883 (100-4500) • Drainage : 650 ml ± 365(20-1900) • Op time : 192 min ± 60 (90-345) Cup alone 53 cases • Blood loss : 645 ml ± 534 (200-3400) • Drainage : 555 ml ± 293(20-1170) • Op time : 160 min ± 38 (90-300)
Diameter of the cups Cases Removed cups : 49.6 mm + cement New cups : 55.9 mm Diameter of the cups
The mean diameter of the new cups increases, but the cement is replaced by bone graft Removed cups : 49.6 mm + cement New cups : 55.9 mm Cement Bone graft
Evaluation Radiographic measurements • Incorporation /radio lucent line • Stability in the 3 planes - Numerised X-rays - Precise measurements (special software : “MetrOs” C. Falaise) Functional value • PMA Score (Postel - Merle d'Aubigné)

Results Postel-Merle d’Aubigné score (18 pts) 16.4 ± 2 / 18 • Excellent : 69 • Good : 29 • Fair: 10 • Poor : 1 • Impossible to estimate: 27 The results are also influenced by the status of the femur
