N1 - Over 40-years the dominant form of implant fixation has been bone cement (PMMA). However the presence of circulating PMMA debris represents a 3rd-body wear mechanism for metal-on-polyethylene (MPE). Wear studies using PMMA slurries represent tests of clinical relevance (Table 1). Cup designs now use many varieties of highly-crosslinked polyethylene (HXPE) of improved wear resistance.
