However, there are situations that involve massive pelvic bone loss that preclude the use of a cementless cup alone. Options include:

Complex acetabular revisions present the arthroplasty surgeon with challenges that require an approach with more than one solution for all scenarios. While structural allografts have recently fallen out of favour with the increasing use of enhanced fixation components, there would still appear to be a role in the case in which
