La pseudoartrosi cotiloidea: una complicanza di difficile soluzione chirurgica. Descrizione di un caso clinico

摘要

With regard to conditions of the cartilage of the acetabulum and head, head viability, coxofemoral congruence and dislocation and size of fragments, two surgical options may be considered: either reduction and synthesis after cruentation of the defect and bone graft apposition, or one- or two-stage arthroplasty.
