Case Description

Preoperative X-ray

  • S/P Re-Revision THA to MOM disease
  • Patient fell 6 month ago
  • Fracture left - leg in severe retroversion (foot externally rotated 80° when ambulates)
  • Fracture had already healed - either needed to reopen fracture or bypass
  • Leg length 2 cm shortened

Course of Treatment

  • Poor acetabular bone stock – patient already had a revision socket for metal on metal disease
  • The retroverted stem was corrected with Link MP Reconstruction System and MobileLink Acetabular Cup System including Dual Mobility Insert
  • Components:
    • MobileLink TiCaP (increase chances of bone integration) with Dual Mobility Insert (since poor abductors and malunited fracture)
    • MP Reconstruction System (distal fixation beyond fracture) with Spacer 10 mm (leg length correction)

Conclusion

Postoperative X-ray

  • Despite the poor bone quality, a stable Re-Revision THA could be achieved using the components of the LINK hip revision portfolio
  • The MobileLink allowed a secure positioning of the acetabular cup – thanks to the HX coating long term biologic ingrowth occured
  • The cementless MP stem provided a stable anchoring without sintering and reached a tight engagement of splines to endosteal bone
  • Due to the modularity of the MP Reconstruction System the length could be individually adjusted
