Deeper Central Reaming May Enhance Initial Acetabular Shell Fixation

Deeper Central Reaming May Enhance Initial Acetabular Shell Fixation

Background: The initial stability of press-fit acetabular components is partially determined by the reaming technique. Nonhemispherical (NHS) acetabular shells, which have a larger radius at the rim than the dome, often require larger reaming preparations than the same-sized hemispherical (HS) shell...
