Event or Problem Description

The patient had a hip prosthesis cup implanted.The patient came in for a check-up.The x-ray and ct scans showed a clear decentration of the prosthesis head and unusually large osteolyses in the acetabulum as signs of premature inlay wear.This was verified when the inlay was changed on to a vit e-hardened, specially approved inlay.As part of the replacement operation, in addition to the inlay exchange, the firm cup integrity was determined, the cysts in the cup bed were cured and filled using hydroxyapatite + calcium (ceramic bone void filler) and the prosthesis head was changed.
