We evaluate the rate of osteotomy healing, implant stability, and eradication of infection when an extended trochanteric osteotomy, with interval placement of an antibiotic-impregnated cement spacer and delayed osteotomy fixation, is used to treat the chronically infected total hip arthroplasty. Thirteen cases were followed for a minimum of 2 years. All patients had complete healing of the extended trochanteric osteotomy within 6 months. At an average follow-up of 39 months, recurrent infection occurred in 3 (23%) patients. Femoral component subsidence of 5 mm occurred in 2 patients, both of which had recurrent infection. Extended trochanteric osteotomy with interval placement of an articulating antibiotic-impregnated cement spacer and delayed osteotomy fixation permits reliable healing of the osteotomy.
