Large articulations do not increase wear rates of thin second-generation highly cross-linked polyethylene liners at ten years

Large articulations do not increase wear rates of thin second-generation highly cross-linked polyethylene liners at ten years

Aims: Radiostereometric analysis (RSA) is the most accurate radiological method to measure in vivo wear of highly cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) acetabular components. We have previously reported very low wear rates for a sequentially irradiated and annealed X3 XLPE liner (Stryker Orthopaedics, US...
