摘要
Placement of an antibiotic-impregnated cement endoprosthesis facilitates patient mobilization and treatment of infection complicating total hip arthroplasty Molds, particularly to form the spherical head of the cement endoprosthesis, are not readily available, however. We have found that the rubber bulb portion of an irrigation syringe can be conveniently used as a mold to shape the proximal end of a cement endoprosthesis during surgery.
