Osteonecrosis of acetabulum following total hip arthroplasty: A case report and literature review.

Key Clinical Message: Despite being rare, we have presented a case of osteonecrosis of acetabulum that followed total hip arthroplasty. It's crucial to act appropriately, as it emulates periprosthetic joint infection. The key point is that the osteonecrosis of acetabulum may necessitate revision and can be classified as aseptic loosening. Osteonecrosis of the femoral head is well known and managed with total hip arthroplasty (THA). Acetabulum osteonecrosis can be classified as a cause of painful THA and the cemented acetabular component is a feasible option. However, it seems that the osteonecrosis of acetabulum is sparsely alluded in literature. In this case report sustaining of the right hip pain following THA of 35‐year‐old woman is discussed.
