Case Description

Preoperative X-ray

  • 1999 Primary left THA: Coxarthrosis
  • 2007: Left THA revision for loose femoral component

  • X-rays show periprosthetic fracture, with appearance of loose femoral component and significant stress shielding of proximal femoral bone.

Preoperative X-ray

Course of Treatment

Postoperative X-ray, 3-month follow-up

  • 05/2013: Revision femoral component
  • Type 4 femoral defect Paprosky Classification
  • Wagner style osteotomy to facilitate femur exposure, implant removal and implantation of Link femoral component
  • Reinforcement of distal bone with lateral strut graft.
  • Components of the MP Reconstruction System:
    • Stem: Cementless, length 330 mm, prox.diameter 27,5 mm
    • Neck Segment: XXL, length 65 mm, CCD 126°, offset 40 mm
    • Spacer: Length 10 mm + 20 mm = 30 mm

Conclusion


Postoperative X-ray, 6-year follow-up

  • 6 year follow-up Radiographs show implant fixation, reconstitution of proximal bone
  • The modular  MP Reconstruction System allowed a management of a complex femoral deformity with periprosthetic fracture and reconstitution of poor proximal bone
  • The result was excellent allowing the patient fully weightbearing and return to activities as tolerated
  • She passed away 7 years after THA revision with a fully functional extremity
