Between July 2000 and December 2002, 263 consecutive patients across 5 surgical centers underwent to a revision surgery of a failed acetabular component in which TM acetabular components were used. There were 150 women and 113 men with a mean age of 69.5 years. The indication for acetabular revision was aseptic loosening in 186 cases (70.7%). Clinical evaluations were performed using the Harris hip score, the WOMAC and UCLA activity scale. Implant and screw position, polyethylene wear, radiolucent lines, gaps, and osteolysis were assessed. Preoperatively, acetabular bone deficiency was categorized using the classification of Paprosky et al. Statistical analysis was performed using nonparametric correlations. Standard life table was constructed, and the survival rate was calculated by means of Kaplan-Meier method. The overall mean follow-up was 73.6 months (range, 60–84 months), and no patient was lost to follow-up. The preoperative HHS rating improved from a mean of 43.6 ± 11.4 before revision, to a mean of 82.1 ± 10.7. None of the patients was re-revised for loosening. The cumulative prosthesis survival was 99.2% at 5 years. There was no correlation found between the various degrees of acetabular bony defect and the magnitude of clinical results (independent of pre-revision Paprosky grade). The use of component augments allowed us to minimize the volume of morsellized allograft used for defect repair. TM acetabular component demonstrates promising midterm results similar to those reported by other authors

Objectives

The aim of this systematic literature review was to assess the clinical level of evidence of commercially available demineralised bone matrix (DBM) products for their use in trauma and orthopaedic related surgery.

Methods

A total of 17 DBM products were used as search terms in two available databases: Embase and PubMed according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta Analyses statement. All articles that reported the clinical use of a DBM-product in trauma and orthopaedic related surgery were included.
