    Abstract : Polyethylene wear and micromotion of the implant play an important role in multifactorial etiology of osteolysis leading to aseptic loosening of the acetabular components. Despite excellent results in primary total hip arthoplasty in a 10-15 year perspective there are still unsolved problems. READ MORE

  5. 3. On late complications with HA coated hip arthroplasties

    Abstract : 100 hips in 86 patients were operated with a total hip arthroplasty entirely coated with a 155±35 µm thick HA coating, and included in a clinical and radiological follow-up study. The female/male ratio was 75/25, and the mean age was 56 years (32-73). Early clinical results were excellent, especially pain relief. No thigh pain was found. READ MORE

    Keywords : Total Hip Arthroplasty;

    Abstract : Introduction: Uncemented acetabular cups are widely used since the early 1990’s, particularly on younger patients with osteoarthritis. Patients with these cups have a reported high risk for revision in the Swedish Hip Arthroplasty Register (SHAR) due to wear and periacetabular osteolysis (PAO). READ MORE
