Minimum 10-year Survivorship of Uncemented Acetabular Reconstruction with Bulk Femoral Head Autografting in Crowe Type IV Developmental Hip Dysplasia

In total hip arthroplasty (THA) for severe dislocations such as Crowe type IV developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH), sufficient bone volume for stable fixation of the acetabular component can be achieved by placing a reinforcing bone graft prepared from the resected femoral head into the deficient acetabulum. The purpose of the current study was to examine the long-term survivorship of uncemented THA in conjunction with a bulk femoral head autograft in patients who have Crowe type IV DDH.
