According to current prognostic studies the numbers of revision operations of hip and knee arthroplasty will increase worldwide. As many patients undergo several revisions and become older at the same time, orthopedic surgeons will have to cope with vast bony defects during operations. The introduction of highly porous metals as surface layer or metal augments has facilitated primary stabilization of prostheses. Short and mid-term results of these new products are promising. New developments in coatings, such as cationic antimicrobial peptides represent new alternatives for antibacterial therapy of periprosthetic infections and increase osteointegration of prosthesis components. Furthermore, the new revision systems have a modular design and can be individually adapted to the patient's bony conditions during operations. In most cases this can be done without cement or in a hybrid technique.
