The in vivo location of edge-wear in hip arthroplasties: combining pre-revision 3D CT imaging with retrieval analysis

The in vivo location of edge-wear in hip arthroplasties: combining pre-revision 3D CT imaging with retrieval analysis

Aims: Acetabular edge-loading was a cause of increased wear rates in metal-on-metal hip arthroplasties, ultimately contributing to their failure. Although such wear patterns have been regularly reported in retrieval analyses, this study aimed to determine their in vivo location and investigate their...
