Using a patterned microtexture to reduce polyethylene wear in metal-on-polyethylene prosthetic bearing couples
{{output}}
The longevity of metal-on-polyethylene prosthetic hip joint bearings, in which a CoCrMo femoral head articulates with a polyethylene liner, is often limited by polyethylene wear and osteolysis caused by polyethylene wear particles. Current approaches to reduce... ...
