No association between serum metal ions and implant fixation in large-head metal-on-metal total hip arthroplasty: A 5-year radiostereometric study of 49 hips
BACKGROUND: The mechanism of failure of metal-on-metal (MoM) total hip arthroplasty (THA) has been related to a high rate of metal wear debris, which is partly generated from the head-trunnion interface. However, it is not known whether implant fixation is affected by metal wear debris. PATIENTS AND...
