Abstract
Metal-on-metal (MOM) retrieval studies have demonstrated that CoCr bearings used in total hip arthroplasty (THA) and resurfacing (RSA) featured stripe wear damage on heads, likely created by rim impact with CoCr cups. 1-3 Such subluxation damage may release quantities of large CoCr particles that would provoke aggressive 3 rd-body wear.
