A comparison of metal/metal and ceramic/metal taper‐trunnion modular connections in explanted total hip replacements

Corrosion and wear are commonly found at the taper‐trunnion connection of modular total hip arthroplasty (THA) explanted devices. While metal/metal (M/M) modular taper‐trunnion connections exhibit more wear/corrosion than ceramic/metal (C/M) modular taper‐trunnion connections, damage is present in b...
