MOM RESURFACING WEAR PATTERNS AND THE EFFECT OF LIMITED ROM

Research output: Contribution to journal › Meeting abstract › peer-review

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.
