  • Title: Osteoarticular allograft reconstruction for recurrent post-traumatic dislocation of the hip.
    Author: Hershey AL, Beals RK.
    Journal: Orthop Rev; 1994 Jul; 23(7):593-7. PubMed ID: 7936738.
    Abstract:
    A patient with post-traumatic mechanical instability associated with a significant posterior acetabular deficiency in the presence of an otherwise good articular surface was treated with an allograft reconstruction. The short-term result was good; at 10-month follow-up there was full range of motion with no clinical evidence of instability. This procedure may be indicated in rare instances of post-traumatic mechanical instability where insufficiency of the posterior acetabular wall is felt to be a significant factor.
