Constrained acetabular liners are a viable option in second-stage re-implantation for chronic infected total hip arthroplasty with abductor or greater trochanter deficiency and large acetabular bone defects

Constrained acetabular liners are a viable option in second-stage re-implantation for chronic infected total hip arthroplasty with abductor or greater trochanter deficiency and large acetabular bone defects

Abstract Background Abductor mechanism deficiency is a clear indication for using constrained acetabular liners (CALs), and large acetabular bone defects are considered a relative contraindication to CALs. We report the results of using CALs in special cases in which abductor or greater trochanter d...
