Impact of introducing custom-made articulating spacers: A retrospective cohort study on two protocols for two-stage hip revision
A protocol including CUMARS is a safe and effective treatment, offering faster recovery, shorter length of hospital stay, and enabling more patients to return home during the interval. This reduces strain on patients and the healthcare system, potentially saving costs, without compromising infection control or increasing (mechanical) complications.
