Revision of Total Hip Arthroplasty Using Allograft

Abstract

We reviewed four cases of revision total hip arthroplasty (T. H. A.) which utilized bone allograft. The bone for allograf t was reserved at 80 degrees and processed using Telos Lobator sd-2. All cases were female, whose age ranged from 68 to 78 years (average: 73.5 years). The follow-up period was from five months to 12 months (average: 7.8 months). There were no evidence of infection and osteolytic change in X-P. The bone allograft seems to be a suitable method for revision total hip arthroplasty.
