Acetabular Lip Augmentation Devices for the Unstable Total Hip Replacement-A Systematic Review.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The optimal management strategy for instability afte total hip arthroplasty remains unclear. Acetabular lip augmentation devices may offer an operative solution for recurrent instability. This systematic review reports the clinical outcomes of acetabular lip augmentation devices in comparison to other treatment options.

Methods

A literature search strategy was performed of Medline, EMBASE, and CENTRAL on September 19, 2020, for all studies reporting outcomes of acetabular lip augmentation devices for recurrent dislocation after total hip arthroplasty. Non-English language articles were excluded. Clinical and survivorship data were collated and analyzed.

Results

Thirteen studies describing acetabular augmentation were included for analysis. A total of 644 hi
