Comparison of Wear Rate between Ceramic-on- Ceramic, Metal on Highly Cross-linked Polyethylene, and Metal-on-Metal Bearings

Abstract Objective Currently, there is a lack of evidence on the medium-term follow-up of cementless total hip arthroplasty (THA) using metal on highly cross-linked polyethylene (MoP), ceramic-on-ceramic (CoC), and metal-on-metal (MoM) bearings. Our aim was to calculate the 5- to 10-year wear rate...
