Re-Revision Complex Total Hip Replacement

57 year old gentleman came to us with complaints of pain in right hip region and inability to walk and bear weight over right lower limb. Patient had past history of trauma to right hip region in the form of fracture acetabulum for which patient underwent primary fixation and Total Hip Replacement elsewhere in 2018. Subsequently patient developed dislocation of right Total Hip Replacement (THR) and underwent revision of acetabulum constrained component at our institute. Patient developed surgical site infection and re-dislocation of previously done hip and came to us for further management.
Pre-op X-Ray pelvis with both hip joints showed dislocated hip with implant in situ

Patient planned for meticulous debridement and definite management for recurrent dislocation of hip. These complex cases required appropriate surgical planning and special surgical instrumentation. Because of previously done multiple surgeries leads to laxity of soft tissues and increases the risk of infection.
This patient underwent thorough surgical site debridement to wash out the infection and one stage re-revision Total Hip Replacement (THR) was done using cemented constrained acetabulum. The femoral stem was also revised to a cemented stem.
