After the cement cures, the temporary spacers are to be removed from the molds with the reinforcement remaining as the core of the spacer, and placed into the joint space. The spacers remain in place (180 days or less) until the second stage of the two-stage procedure is performed to implant a conventional hip joint prosthesis.
