Summary: This study compared the outcomes of using standard acetabular implants (SAIs) and custom-made acetabular implants (CMAIs) in the reconstruction of acetabular bone loss in revision total hip arthroplasty (RTHA). The results showed that the incidence of aseptic loosening was lower when using CMAI compared to SAI in cases with extensive acetabular bone loss.

Summary: This case report presents a successful treatment of Paprosky type III acetabular defects using a 3D-printed porous titanium acetabular composite component. The component was implanted through a posterolateral approach and fixed with cup screws. At a 2-year follow-up, the patient had satisfactory hip joint function without any complications.

Summary: This study analyzed the outcomes of 14 patients treated with custom made monoflanged acetabular components (CMACs) for Paprosky type III defects during revision total hip arthroplasty. Results indicated that CMACs can be considered as an option for acetabular bone loss in revision THA, although high failure rates due to periprosthetic infection were observed.

Summary: This study assessed the accuracy of custom-made acetabular implants by comparing pre- and postoperative CT scans. The results showed satisfactory accuracy in positioning, with only one case showing malpositioning due to an error in the implant's center of rotation.

Summary: This study systematically reviewed and meta-analyzed the performance of custom triflange acetabular components (CTAC) in revision total hip arthroplasty (THA) surgery. The results showed satisfactory complication and implant failure rates, as well as improved post-operative clinical outcomes with the use of CTAC.

Summary: This study evaluated risk factors for failure of custom-made acetabular implants in revision total hip arthroplasty (RTHA). The study found that previous periprosthetic joint infection, additional revision of femoral components, rheumatoid disease, elevated preoperative CRP, and low preoperative hemoglobin were statistically significant risk factors associated with treatment failure.

Summary: This study compared the cost-effectiveness of 3D-printed acetabular implants (aMace) with traditional alternatives (CTAC), demonstrating that aMace provides superior value for money for patients undergoing revision hip arthroplasty in a Belgian setting. Patient age impacts both costs and effects, with the use of aMace as an implant resulting in greater QALY gains and cost savings.

Summary: The choice of custom-made spacers in the interim phase of two-stage revision hip arthroplasty is crucial for surgical outcomes. The new technique demonstrated a high reinfect-free rate and low spacer-related complication rate, showing superiority over conventional concepts. Further research is needed to confirm the clinical benefits of this procedure.

Summary: This article discusses the growing use of 3D printing technology and visualization of anatomical structures in various medical fields, and presents a successful case of complex revision hip arthroplasty using custom-made implants and mixed reality. The combined use of these two innovations allowed for precise implant fixation and improved visualization of structures. The team identifies opportunities for further technological development in joint arthroplasty, trauma, and orthopedic oncology.

Summary: This case study presents a 61-year-old woman with concurrent PJIs and femoral segmental defect following THA. A two-stage custom-made total hip revision was performed, resulting in satisfactory hip function and no early postoperative complications. The use of customized implants provides an alternative option for patients without suitable spacers or implants, but long-term function, longevity, and cost-effectiveness still need further exploration.

Summary: This study provides comprehensive long-term outcomes of using TM augments for severe acetabular defects, with an estimated mean implant survivorship of 8.99 years. Despite some complications during surgery, the quality of life and joint function of patients were significantly improved postoperatively.
