Medical Must-See: Replacement hip hops to new location
It is only the fourth reported case of complete intrapelvic cup migration where the protruded cup was not retrieved.

The elderly woman presented to the Patras University Hospital complaining of right hip pain and an inability to bear weight that had steadily deteriorated over a three-month period.
