In scope icon L 1 A
QID 5531 (Type "5531" in App Search)
A 75-year-old male presents with recurrent dislocations of this left hip. He underwent bilateral total hip arthroplasties 12 and 8 years ago. There were no early post-operative complications with either hip. Despite a total of 5 dislocations in 6 months, he does not have pain or weakness across the left hip. On examination, there is a healthy appearing left lateral scar, equal limb lengths, normal gait and full abductor strength. Radiographs of the pelvis are shown in Figure A. His laboratory results show an erythrocyte sedimentation rate of 8 mm/h (reference range, 0-20 mm/h), and C-reactive protein of 3 mg/L (reference range, 0-5.0 mg/L). A hip aspirate culture is negative. What is the next best management option for this patient?
