BMPs in periprosthetic tissues around aseptically loosened total hip implants

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Primary and dynamically maintained periprosthetic bone formation is essential for osseointegration of hip implants to host bone. Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) play a role in osteoinductive bone formation. We hypothesized that there is an increased local synthesis of BMPs...
