BACKGROUND In press-fit total hip arthroplasty(THA)ceramic-on-ceramic(CoC)bearings are a potential for overcoming the wear that is seen in ceramic-on-polyethylene(CoPE)bearings,and can lead to wear-induced osteolysis,...
Background: Asian cultures require floor-seated positions demanding a high range of motion (ROM). Ceramic-On-Ceramic (COC) interface allowed the use of larger head with reduced wear debris generation and adverse tissu...
Objective: The present study aimed to review the characteristics and influencing factors of squeaking after ceramic-on-ceramic (CoC) total hip arthroplasty (THA) and to analyze the possible mechanisms of the audi...
Background:Wear debris of polyethylene has become a restraining factor of the durability for total hip arthroplasty (THA).Ceramic on ceramic (COC) has better wear resistance while the squeaking sound and prosthes...
Background The incidence of total hip replacement in the younger and more active patients is ever increasing.The ceramic-on-ceramic (COC) bearing was developed to reduce wear debris-induced osteolysis and loosening ...
Background Ceramic bearing surfaces have been introduced to prevent osteolysis after total hip arthroplasty (THA),but little is known about the difference in clinical and radiological results between pure alumina an...
Ceramics are good alternative to metal as bearing couple materials because of their better wear resistance. A Finite Element(FE) study was performed to investigate the contact mechanics and stress distribution of Cera...
