Abstract
Performance of metal-on-metal (MOM) bearings was of great interest until recently. Major concerns emerged over high incidence of MOM-wear failures and initially there appeared greater risks with MOM total hip arthroplasty (THA) designs compared to resurfacing arthroplasty (RSA). Impingement of the metal neck against the THA cup was likely the differentiating risk.
