Cementing Acetabular Liners Into Secure Cementless Shells for Polyethylene Wear Provides Durable Mid-term Fixation.
CONCLUSIONS: Cementation of a liner into a well-fixed cementless shell after scoring in a spider-web configuration provided secure fixation with no failures of the construct at average 5.3 years followup. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level IV, therapeutic study. See Guidelines for Authors for a complete description of levels of evidence.
