ABSTRACT
Acetabular revision arthroplasty, a demanding field of reconstructive hip surgery, calls for innovative strategies to deal with challenging bone defects and implant failure seen in revision cases. Conventional implant solutions might fall short of adequately addressing severe bone loss and ensuring stable fixation, highlighting the necessity of customized strategies. Personalized megaimplants, distinguished by their tailor-made design and large-scale construction, present a viable option to overcome these challenges. The present article provides an elaborate analysis of custom-made megaimplants in acetabular revision arthroplasty, shedding light on the underlying principles, design complexities, manufacturing methods, applications in the clinical setting, and outcome assessment. The aim of this review is to present a comprehensive insight into personalized megaimplants and their contribution to the advancement of orthopedic surgery.
