LABRADO BEREA, Galia de la Caridad; LOPEZ HERNANDEZ, Fermín Osvaldo  y  GARCIA ESTRADA, Elsa María. Use of femoral head autograft in treating acetabular deffects. Rev Cubana Ortop Traumatol [online]. 2014, vol.28, n.1, pp. 101-108. ISSN 0864-215X.

The theoretical review of the hip arthoplasty in the acetabular variant is a controversial topic among the orthopedic surgeons. The indications for the recovery of the bone reserve, particularly with structural allografts, remain under discussion. It is widely accepted to use crushed bone allograft to treat cavity defects and the results have been good worldwide. The use of a structural graft is more random and the results vary according to the scientific literature. This paper will deal with the use of cephalic autograft taken from the femoral head of the patient. Our experience in the use of bone allograft is wide since the center has a bone bank at its disposal that may meet the growing surgical needs of many patients.

Palabras clave : arthroplasty; allograft; autograft; acetabular defects.
