Abstract

AIG was first described as a primary hip arthroplasty technique by Hastings and Parker in 1975 for rheumatoid patients with acetabular protrusion [1]. It was subsequently used for revision THR by Slooff [2, 3]. Initially, AIG was described as a cemented implantation technique. Now it can be used with a cementless acetabular component as well [4–6].
