Abstract
Revision total hip arthroplasty (rTHA) involving acetabular defects is a complex procedure associated with lower rates of success than primary THA. Computational modeling has played a key role in surgical planning and prediction of postoperative outcomes following primary THA, but modeling applications in rTHA for acetabular defects remain poorly understood. This study aimed to systematically review the use of computational modeling in acetabular defect classification, implant selection and placement, implant design, and postoperative joint functional performance evaluation following rTHA involving acetabular defects. The databases of Web of Science, Scopus, Medline, Embase, Global Health and Central were searched. Fifty-three relevant articles met the inclusion criteria, and their quality were evaluated using a modified Downs and Black evaluation criteria framework. Manual image segmentation from computed tomography scans, which is time consuming, remains the primary method used to generate 3D models of hip bone; however, statistical shape models, once developed, can be used to estimate pre-defect anatomy rapidly. Finite element modeling, which has been used to estimate bone stresses and strains, and implant micromotion postoperatively, has played a key role in custom and off-the-shelf implant design, mitigation of stress shielding, and prediction of bone remodeling and implant stability. However, model validation is challenging and requires rigorous evaluation and comparison with respect to mid- to long-term clinical outcomes. Development of fast, accurate methods to model acetabular defects, including statistical shape models and artificial neural networks, may ultimately improve uptake of and expand applications in modeling and simulation of rTHA for the research setting and clinic.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Increases in the numbers of surgical procedures for primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) inevitably lead to increases in the requirements for revision THA. The achievement of long-term stability is difficult or impossible by conventional implants in patients with severe destruction of the acetabulum. OBJECTIVE This case report presents a successful treatment using a specific three-dimensional (3D)-printed porous titanium acetabular composite component without a flange in the management of Paprosky type IIIB acetabular defects. METHOD A 65-year-old female diagnosed with right hip prosthetic loosening with a huge acetabular defect presented to our hospital. We designed the 3D model of the pelvis and created an individualized 3D-printed porous titanium acetabular composite component for revision THA. The procedure was performed through a posterolateral approach, and the component was implanted in the defect and fixed with cup screws using the drill guides. RESULTS At the last follow-up at 2 years, the patient had a satisfactory hip joint function and no signs of loosening or other complications were found. CONCLUSIONS The 3D-printed porous titanium acetabular composite component without a flange is showing promising clinical and radiological outcomes in the management of Paprosky type III acetabular defects.

Abstract
AIMS In case of severe bone loss, acetabular revision can be challenged using extra porous pure trabecular titanium (TT) revision cups designed to ensure enhanced iliac and ischiatic purchase. Aim of the study is to report on the clinical and radiological results of a TT acetabular component, evaluating functional outcome, restoration of the hip center of rotation and osteointegration. METHODS 85 patients, who underwent acetabular revision with a TT revision cup system between October 2009 and December 2018, were included in a retrospective study. Clinical outcome were assessed with Harris Hip Score (HHS). The hip rotation center was measured using the Pierchon method on the AP pelvis film. Loosening of the cup was determined according to the Kosashvili modification of Gill's criteria. Kaplan- Meier survivorship curve was performed. Results The mean follow-up was 6.12 years. The average HHS improved from 54.7 points to 89.7 points (p < 0.05). Two acetabular components (2.3%) were re-revised after a mean of 5.6 years, for aseptic loosening and for infection, with a progressive radiolucency and a > 5 mm vertical migration, respectively. The radiographic evaluation of the position of the hip rotation center revealed a statistically significant difference (p < 0.05) between the pre- and post-operative values. The hip rotation center was correctly restored within 5% of the reference Pierchon values in a percentage of 85.4% relative to horizontal parameters and within 8% in a percentage of 66.7% relative to vertical parameters. 5-year and 10-year survivorships were, respectively, 100% and 88%. CONCLUSIONS In case of severe bone loss, TT revision cup system allows for good restoration of center of rotation and osteointegration showing good 10-year survival rate.

Abstract
Introduction Many studies have reported the clinical outcomes of a jumbo cup in revision total hip arthroplasty (rTHA) with acetabular bone defect. We conducted a systematic review to access the survivorship and clinical and radiological outcomes of a jumbo cup in rTHA. Methods A systematic review was conducted according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. A comprehensive literature search from PubMed, MEDLINE, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews was performed with the keywords (“revision” OR “revision surgery” OR “revision arthroplasty”) AND (“total hip arthroplasty” OR “total hip replacement” OR “THA” OR “THR”) AND (“jumbo cup” OR “jumbo component” OR “extra-large cup” OR “extra-large component”). Studies reporting the clinical or radiological outcomes were included. The basic information and radiological and clinical results of these studies were extracted and summarized for analysis. Results A total of 19 articles were included in the systematic review. The analysis of clinical results included 953 hips in 14 studies. The re-revision-free survivorship of the jumbo cup was 95.0% at a mean follow-up of 9.3 years. Dislocation, aseptic loosening, and periprosthetic joint infection were the top three complications with an incidence of 5.9%, 3.0%, and 2.1%, respectively. The postrevision hip center was relatively elevated 10.3 mm on average; the mean postoperative leg-length discrepancy was 5.4 mm. Conclusion A jumbo cup is a favorable option for acetabular bone defect reconstruction in rTHA with satisfying survivorship and acceptable complication rates.

Abstract
Background Bridging bone defects in revision total hip arthroplasty is a challenge to orthopedic surgeons. The eccentric revision cup is a progression of jumbo cup. Our aim is to confirm the optimal screw-hole positions of the eccentric revision cup by morphological measurements of three-dimensional pelvic reconstruction.
Methods Eighty CT images were converted to virtual three-dimensional bones. After simulating the surgery procedure, all available screw holes were inserted with the screws in virtual. By measuring the length of the screw in the pelvic bone, we determined the rich bone stock area. Then the screw holes were designed according to the characteristics of bone stock distribution. The peripheral screw-hole cluster and inner screw-hole cluster were studied respectively. Results For peripheral screw-hole cluster, five screw holes were evenly distributed between point A and point B in the thicker rim. For inner screw-hole cluster, screw hole 1 and screw hole 2 are the recommended inner screw holes. Conclusion The eccentric revision cup has inherited the strengths of jumbo cup besides several unique advantages, including using the peripheral screws enhancing primary stability; decreasing the shift of hip rotation center and restoring biomechanical function; reducing the risk of dislocation because of the smaller head-cup differences; increasing the contact area between the outer cup and the host bone while maintaining a normal inclination of the inner cup. In this study, we confirmed the optimal screw-hole positions of the eccentric revision cup by surgical simulation and morphological measurement. However, biomechanical tests are still being further explored.

Abstract
PURPOSE Severe acetabular bone defect is challenging in revision hip arthroplasty. In the present study, we aimed to present new treatment options with the 3D printing technique and analyze the clinical and radiographic outcomes of 3D-printed titanium implants for the treatment of severe acetabular bone defects in revision hip arthroplasty. METHODS A total of 35 patients with Paprosky type 3 bone defect and pelvic discontinuity (PD), who underwent hip revisions using 3D-printed titanium implants between 2016 and 2019 at our institution, were retrospectively reviewed. Patient-specific 3D-printed titanium augments and shells (strategy A) were used in 22 type 3A and two type 3B patients. Custom 3D-printed flanged components (strategy B) were used in 11 type 3B patients, including five PD. The clinical outcomes were evaluated with the Harris hip score (HHS). In addition, radiographic results were analyzed by the hip centre of rotation (V-COR and H-COR), implant failure, and survivorship. RESULTS The mean follow-up was 41.5 months (range, 16-62). The HHS was improved from 47.8 ± 8.2 pre-operatively to 78.1 ± 10.1 at one year follow-up and 86.4 ± 5.1 at the last follow-up (p < 0.01). Post-operative V-COR and H-COR of the operated side were 20.8 ± 2.0 mm and 30.2 ± 1.6 mm compared with 51.4 ± 4.1 mm and 33.9 ± 9.0 mm pre-operatively (p < 0.01). The complications included one dislocation and one partial palsy of the sciatic nerve. At the latest follow-up, no radiological component loosening or screw breakage was present. CONCLUSIONS 3D-printed titanium implants showed satisfactory short- and mid-term clinical and radiographic outcomes. It was an effective therapeutic regimen with a low rate of complications, providing a patient-specific and reliable strategy for the severe acetabular bone defect in revision hip arthroplasty.

Abstract
Despite growing evidence supporting the evaluation, classification, and treatment of acetabular bone loss in revision hip replacement, advancements have not been systematically incorporated into a single document, and therefore, a comprehensive review of the treatment of severe acetabular bone loss is needed. The Stavros Niarchos Foundation Complex Joint Reconstruction Center at Hospital for Special Surgery held an Acetabular Bone Loss Symposium on June 21, 2019, to answer the following questions: What are the trends, emerging technologies, and areas of future research related to the evaluation and management of acetabular bone loss in revision hip replacement? What constitutes the optimal workup and management strategies for acetabular bone loss? The 36 international experts convened were divided into groups, each assigned to discuss 1 of 4 topics: (1) preoperative planning and postoperative assessment; (2) implant selection, management of osteolysis, and management of massive bone loss; (3) the treatment challenges of pelvic discontinuity, periprosthetic joint infection, instability, and poor bone biology; and (4) the principles of reconstruction and classification of acetabular bone loss. Each group came to consensus, when possible, based on an extensive literature review. This document provides an overview of these 4 areas, the consensus each group arrived at, and directions for future research.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Acetabular revision arthroplasty using jumbo cups for moderate-to-severe acetabular defects has varied outcomes. We evaluated the clinical and radiological outcomes of acetabular revision arthroplasty using a press-fitted jumbo cup and sought to identify factors that influence outcomes during intermediate follow-up. MATERIALS AND METHODS Eighty patients (47 men, 33 women; 80 hips) who underwent acetabular revision arthroplasty using press-fitted jumbo cups were included. The mean follow-up period was 10.4 years. Harris hip score (HHS), presence of groin pain, radiographic results, and Kaplan-Meier survival curves were evaluated. Implant design and surgery-related and patient-related factors were assessed to identify influential factors for cup loosening. Migration and wear analyses were performed using Einzel-Bild-Röntgen-Analyse software. RESULTS The mean preoperative HHS of 53 had improved to 77 at the final follow-up (p = 0.005). Nine patients experienced groin pain. Acetabular cup loosening was observed in seven cups (8.7%), and one jumbo cup was replaced with a reinforcement cage. The survival rate of the acetabular cup was 91% at 16 years according to the Kaplan-Meier analysis. Osteolysis was identified around the cup in six cases (7.5%). Acetabular cup loosening occurred more frequently in patients with conventional polyethylene liners than in those with highly cross-linked polyethylene liners (p = 0.045). The mean total migration was 1.52 mm, and the mean total wear was 0.98 mm. There was a positive correlation between total migration and total wear (p = 0.023; Spearman's rho = 0.388). The mean wear rate of the patients with the cup inclination angle < 50° was significantly lower than those with the cup inclination angle > 50° (p = 0.001). There were four cases of complications (three dislocations and one infection) that did not require revision surgery. CONCLUSION Press-fitted jumbo cups for acetabular revision arthroplasty exhibited encouraging results during follow-up for an average of 10 years. Use of highly cross-linked polyethylene liners and proper placement of the acetabular component with an inclination angle < 50° may contribute to better clinical outcomes after acetabular revision arthroplasty with jumbo cups.

Abstract
Several conditions may predispose patients to development of antero-lateral acetabular bone deficiency, including developmental dysplasia of the hip, osteonecrosis, or septic arthritis, among others. This may compromise the ability to gain acetabular component stability and impair reliable fixation. Large acetabular shells have often been used to achieve adequate fixation in scenarios of severe bone loss, however, these techniques have been shown to elevate the center of rotation (COR) of the hip and alter hip biomechanics. Recently, a new acetabular shell was developed with a goal of maintaining the native hip COR while achieving good fixation with standard instrumentation and technique. Previous radiographic studies have demonstrated the efficacy of this shell in lowering hip COR. In this case series, we demonstrate the use of this shell in patients with difficult hip pathologies. We have demonstrated how this offset COR acetabular shell may help bring down the COR of the hip in these quite challenging cases utilizing conventional techniques.

The Utilization of Metal Augments Allows Better Biomechanical Reconstruction of the Hip in Revision Total Hip Arthroplasty With Severe Acetabular Defects: A Comparative Study. J Arthroplasty 2018; 33:3724-3733. [PMID: 30243881 DOI: 10.1016/j.arth.2018.08.027] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/06/2018] [Revised: 08/22/2018] [Accepted: 08/24/2018] [Indexed: 02/01/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Reconstructing the normal hip biomechanics is important for a successful revision total hip arthroplasty (THA). Little is known about whether using metal augments in revision THA is biomechanically superior to traditional techniques. METHODS A retrospective review was conducted on 74 consecutive THAs revised using metal augments with a cementless hemispherical cup and 77 consecutive THAs revised using the jumbo cup, all with a minimum 2-year follow-up. Biomechanical parameters were measured before and immediately after the revision. Radiological and clinical outcomes at follow-ups were also evaluated. RESULTS The metal augment group had a reconstructed center of rotation (COR) that was 6.5 mm closer to the anatomic COR in height (P < .001), had 3.6 m smaller cup size (P < .001), and had 5.7 mm less head-cup difference (P < .001). Moreover, there was a reconstructed COR that was much closer to the anatomic COR (vertical distance: 1.8 vs 14.1 mm, P < .001; horizontal distance: -2.1 vs 7.9 mm, P = .013), had 4.1 mm greater femoral offset (P = .006), and had 8 mm less leg length discrepancy (P = .035) in the subgroup of Paprosky type III bone defects when compared to the jumbo cup group. All cup-augment constructs were radiologically stable with a higher mean postoperative Harris Hip Score (P = .012). One jumbo cup was radiologically unstable. CONCLUSION In revision THA, utilizing metal augments helps to restore the COR position more precisely, avoid using a larger cup, reduce head-cup difference, rebuild femoral offset, and decrease leg length discrepancy, particularly with Paprosky type III bone defects. Moreover, it provides satisfactory radiological and clinical outcomes in the short term.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Our study examines the long-term results of acetabular reconstruction using the Ganz acetabular reinforcement ring (GRR) in total hip arthroplasty. METHODS Between 1998 and 2001, 135 hips (119 revision and 16 primary arthroplasties) were consecutively implanted with a GRR at our hospital. The average age was 65 years (range, 26-90). Clinical and radiographic evaluations were carried out. Long-term survivorship was estimated using a competing risks analysis, and multivariate survivorship using Cox regression model was used to identify risk factors for implant failure. RESULTS At a mean follow-up of 16 years (range, 15-18), 3 patients were lost to follow-up and 19 had implant failure: 4 aseptic loosenings without re-revision, 4 septic, and 11 aseptic re-revisions. Survival was estimated at 86% after 16 years (95% confidence interval [CI], 78.5%-90.9%) using radiographic loosening or revision for any reason as the end point. Using aseptic loosening as the end point, the survival was estimated at 91.2% after 16 years (95% CI, 84.5%-95.0%). Multivariate analysis revealed that age at surgery was a significant risk factor for failure of the GRR. With acetabular revision or loosening as the end point, patients ≤60 years had 71.6% (95% CI, 53%-82.8%) and older patients had 92.2% (95% CI, 84%-96.2%) probability of implant survival after a mean 16-year follow-up. The median Harris Hip Scores and Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index scores were 77 and 64.5, respectively, and mean Numerical Pain Rating Scale score was 1.6 at final follow-up. CONCLUSION Our long-term study showed acceptable survival and functional results using the GRR in older patients, while young patients had less favorable survival.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bone loss in patients undergoing revision THA poses a considerable challenge for orthopaedic surgeons. Often, to achieve better fixation in remaining bone, larger diameter acetabular components and reaming superiorly may be necessary. However, this is likely to raise the hip center of rotation, which may lead to altered biomechanics, specifically, insufficiency of the abductor muscles, altered gait, and increased risk of dislocation from impingement. More recently, a newer acetabular shell has been designed to more closely replicate the native hip center of rotation in these circumstances while maintaining adequate fixation. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES The purpose of this study was to compare the radiographic parameters of this newer design with conventional hemispheric cups in revision THA. Specifically, we assessed the differences in (1) vertical center of rotation (COR) displacement and (2) horizontal COR displacement. METHODS Between January 2016 and April 2016, five reconstructive surgeons at five institutions utilized a newer highly porous acetabular shell designed with peripheral screw holes and vertically eccentric COR to allow for restoration of center of hip rotation in revision THA. We included all patients who received this device. During this time, the general indications at these sites for using the new device included Paprosky Stage IIA, IIB, IIC, or IIIA acetabular defects. This yielded 29 patients who were subsequently matched (one to two) by cup size and sex to a cohort who underwent revision THA with conventional hemispheric cups between January 2015 and May 2016. To determine hip COR, radiographic measurements were performed. A circle contiguous to the acetabulum was drawn and the center was determined as the hip COR. All measurements were made from the interteardrop line for both the revised and native hips. A line through the teardrops was used for all horizontal measurements. Center position adjustments were made based on the manufacturer-specified values. Comparisons were performed using chi-square tests for categorical and t-tests for continuous variables. There was no difference in the severity of bone loss before the revision in the groups, as evidenced by Paprosky staging of preoperative radiographs. RESULTS The mean vertical COR displacement was smaller in patients who had the novel cup (3.5 mm; range, -12 to 15 mm; mean difference, -7.3 mm; 95% confidence interval [CI], -13.2 to -1.5) as compared with those who had the conventional cup (10.5 mm; range, -4 to 50 mm; mean difference, 7.3 mm; 95% CI, -12.5 to -2.2; p = 0.003). There was no difference in mean horizontal displacement between the two groups (-0.06 ± 6.1 versus 1.7 ± 7.1; mean difference, -1.8; p = 0.903). CONCLUSIONS Although hip COR was improved based on radiographic measurements with the use of this novel acetabular design, and although this may improve hip biomechanics, more studies are required before its widespread adoption for revision cases of this nature can be recommended. Both implant costs and the risks associated with using a new design in practice will have to be justified by studies that evaluate fixation, clinical function and implant survival, and patient-reported outcome scores, all of which were beyond the scope of this preliminary report. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level III, therapeutic study.

Abstract
Objective To investigate the change of the femoral offset and hip center of rotation (COR) after using Jumbo cups in total hip arthroplasty (THA) revision. Methods The clinical data of 23 patients who underwent THA revision using Jumbo cups between January 2010 and May 2015 were retrospectively analyzed. Morselized bone graft was performed on 8 cases, morselized bone graft combined with structural bone graft on 10 cases. There were 10 males and 13 females, aged 65.4 years on average (range, 51-77 years). The disease duration was 1-24 years (mean, 8.57 years). The reasons for revision included aseptic loosening in 21 cases and periprosthetic infection in 2 cases. The Harris hip score and visual analogue scale (VAS) were 43.04±5.05 and 5.70±0.97 before operation respectively. According to the Paprosky acetabular defect classification, there were 5 cases of type I, 5 cases of type II A, 3 cases of type II B, 6 cases of type II C, and 4 cases of type III A. The X-ray films showed that the femoral offset was (40.65±4.09) mm for normal side and was (44.04±5.08) mm for affected side at preoperation, showing significant difference ( t=4.098, P=0.000). Ten patients underwent femoral offset reconstruction (43.48%) but 13 patients did not (56.52%) before operation. The COR was reconstructed in 10 cases (43.48%); COR elevation was observed in 11 cases (47.83%), and COR decline in 2 cases (8.69%) before operation. Results Primary healing of incision was obtained in all patients, with no complication of infection, vascular injury, deep vein thrombosis, dislocation of the joint, or fracture around prosthesis. All the patients were followed up 12-76 months (mean, 22.48 months). The Harris hip score and VAS were 82.09±4.53 and 0.74±0.62 at 1 year after operation respectively, showing significant differences when compared with preoperative scores ( t=37.831, P=0.000; t=22.318, P=0.000). The X-ray films showed that the femoral offset was (43.87±3.57) mm for affected side at 1 year after operation, showing no significant difference when compared with preoperative one ( t=0.250, P=0.805), but significant difference was found between affected side and normal side ( t=5.591, P=0.000). The femoral offset was restored in 16 patients (69.57%) and was not restored in 7 patients (30.43%) after operation. The COR was restored in 15 patients (65.22%) and was not restored in 8 patients (34.78%). Conclusion Using Jumbo cups or combined with morselized or structural bone graft is effective in restoring hip COR and femoral offset at the maximum limit in THA revision, with good short-term outcome and improved stability of acetabular prosthesis.

Segmental acetabular rim defects, bone loss, oversizing, and press fit cup in total hip arthroplasty evaluated with a probabilistic finite element analysis. INTERNATIONAL ORTHOPAEDICS 2016; 41:1527-1533.

Abstract
PURPOSE Management of segmental rim defects and bone mineral density (BMD) loss in the elderly prior to total hip replacement is unclear within classification systems for acetabular bone loss. In this study, our objectives were (1) to understand how a reduction in BMD in the elderly affects the oversizing of a press-fit cup for primary fixation and (2) to evaluate whether the location of the segmental defect affected cup fixation. METHODS A finite element (FE) model was used to simulate and evaluate cup insertion and fixation in the context of segmental rim defects. We focused on the distribution of patients over age 70 and used BMD (estimated from CT) as a proxy for aging's implications on THR and used probabilistic FE analysis to understand how BMD loss affects oversizing of a press-fit cup. RESULTS A cup oversized by 1.10 ± 0.28 mm provides sufficient fixation and lower stresses at the cup-bone interface for elderly patients. Defects in the anterior column and posterior column both required the same mean insertion force for cup seating of 84% (taken as an average of 2 anterior column and 2 posterior column defects) compared to the control configuration, which was 5% greater than the insertion force for a superior rim defect and 12% greater than the insertion force for an inferior rim defect. CONCLUSIONS A defect along the superior or inferior rim had a minimal effect on cup fixation, while a defect in the columns created cup instability and increased stress at the defect location.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Reconstruction of acetabular defects in total hip arthroplasty (THA) presents a great challenge to orthopaedic surgeons. Previous studies have reported on the use and outcomes of trabecular metal acetabular augments for the reconstruction of acetabular defects. However, no study has been conducted evaluating the short-term results of tritanium acetabular wedge augments for the reconstruction of acetabular defects in THA. METHODS A retrospective study was conducted using a prospective database at a single institution including primary and revision THA patients from January 2013 to December 2014. Patients were included if they received a tritanium acetabular wedge augment system and had a minimum of 2-year follow-up (average 2.2 years ±0.3, range, 2-2.6 years). Demographic data and outcomes data [Harris Hip Score-HHS and Short Form (SF)-36] was collected. Radiographic data was also collected on THA revision cases (Paprosky classification), developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) cases (Crowe classification), and radiographic follow-up using DeLee and Charnley's classification system. RESULTS There were 4 revision THA patients, 3 DDH patients, and 1 patient with posttraumatic arthritis. At the latest radiographic follow-up, there were no lucent lines in DeLee and Charnley Zones I, II or III. During the follow-up period, there was no open revision surgery. The SF-36 physical score significantly improved from preoperative measurement (29.6±2.2) to postoperative measurement (52.2±8.7, P=0.003), and the SF-36 mental score also significantly improved from preoperative assessment (34.5±4.5) to postoperative assessment (52.2±7.5, P=0.003). Total HHS scores also significantly improved postoperatively (P=0.02), with significant improvements in both the pain score (P=0.01) and function score (P=0.02). CONCLUSIONS Tritanium acetabular wedge augments in this short follow-up case series exhibit high clinical outcome scores, no radiographic lucency, and no early failures.

Comparison of Head Center Position and Screw Fixation Options Between a Jumbo Cup and an Offset Center of Rotation Cup in Revision Total Hip Arthroplasty: A Computer Simulation Study. J Arthroplasty 2016; 31:307-11.

Abstract
Jumbo acetabular cups are commonly used in revision total hip arthroplasty (THA). A straightforward reaming technique is used which is similar to primary THA. However, jumbo cups may also be associated with hip center elevation, limited screw fixation options, and anterior soft tissue impingement. A partially truncated hemispherical shell was designed with an offset center of rotation, thick superior rim, and beveled anterior and superior rims as an alternative to a conventional jumbo cup. A three dimensional computer simulation was used to assess head center position and safe screw trajectories. Results of this in vitro study indicate that a modified hemispherical implant geometry can reduce head center elevation while permitting favorable screw fixation trajectories into the pelvis in comparison to a conventional jumbo cup.

Do jumbo cups cause hip center elevation in revision THA? A radiographic evaluation. Clin Orthop Relat Res 2014; 472:2793-8.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acetabular revision THA with use of a large (jumbo) cup is an effective treatment for many cavitary and segmental peripheral bone defects. However, hip center elevation may occur with use of a jumbo cup owing to reaming superiorly and/or because of the increased diameter of the jumbo cup compared with the native acetabulum. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES In our jumbo cup revision THAs, we attempted to avoid hip center elevation by placing the inferior edge of the cup at the inferior acetabulum. In this study, we asked (1) how much of an elevation in the hip center is observed radiographically with use of jumbo cups, and (2) how effective was our technique in minimizing hip center elevation during revision THA in clinical practice? METHODS We retrospectively reviewed radiographic data for all patients, from one surgeon's practice, who received a jumbo cup (defined as cup size ≥ 66 mm in men, ≥ 62 mm in women) during an acetabular revision between 1998 and 2012 and who had an anatomically placed THA or no THA on the contralateral side (so as to be able to make comparisons); 98 patients were identified and included. The height of the revised hip center was measured relative to the contralateral normal hip. Cup elevation resulting from superior reaming was determined by measuring the distance from the inferior cup edge to the interteardrop line. The mean hip center elevation and cup position relative to the interteardrop line in male and female patients were compared using unpaired t-tests. RESULTS Radiographic analysis showed a mean hip center elevation of 11 mm. On average, 1 mm of the measured hip center elevation was the result of cup placement superior to its planned position at the interteardop line. CONCLUSIONS Our results indicate that revision THA with a jumbo cup is associated with hip center elevation despite placement of the cup at the inferior acetabulum. An increase in femoral head length may be needed to compensate for hip center elevation with use of a jumbo cup. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level III, therapeutic study.
