Highly cross-linked versus conventional polyethylene inserts in total hip arthroplasty, a five-year Roentgen stereophotogrammetric analysis randomised controlled trial

BACKGROUND: Polyethylene (PE) particles produced by wear of the acetabular insert are thought to cause osteolysis and thereby aseptic loosening of the implant in total hip arthroplasty (THA). As highly cross-linked polyethylene (HXLPE) is presumed to give lower wear rates, in vivo studies are needed...
