Description
| It was developed to replace prosthetic components in an infected hip. It is placed as a hemiarthroplasty after original implants are removed. This spacer is inserted without cement in the femoral medulary canal to enable antibiotic release from the spacer to the surrounding tissues. Thus, articular spacer and an adequate leg length are kept, which will benefit the maintenance of the abductor muscle and stability of the Hip. It also allows better tolerance of patient’s daily activities until revision of the prosthesis. The spacer is kept in place until the surgeon considers it is necessary, after which it is removed and replaced by a permanent prosthesis. |
