Ceramic Head Fracture in Ceramic-on-Polyethylene Total Hip Arthroplasty
Revision rates of total hip arthroplasty have decreased after introducing total hip arthroplasty (THA) using ceramic component, since ceramic components could reduce components wear and osteolysis. The fracture of a ceramic component is a rare but potentially serious event. Thus, ceramic on polyethylene articulation is gradually spotlighted to reduce ceramic component fracture. There are a few ...
متن کاملRepeated Ceramic Head Fracture after Ceramic-on-ceramic Total Hip Arthroplasty
Early generation ceramic articulations were problematic in terms of ceramic implant fracture and wear. Although the mechanical properties of ceramic material have improved during the last three decades, ceramic component fracture remains an issue. Many authors have reported fractures of the ceramic head, and a few have described ceramic acetabular insert fracture. However, these complications a...
متن کاملErratum for Ceramic-on-Ceramic Versus Ceramic-on-Polyethylene Bearing Surfaces in Total Hip Arthroplasty.
The choice between ceramic-on-ceramic (COC) and ceramic-on-polyethylene (COP) in primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) remains controversial. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the reliability and durability of COC vs COP bearing surfaces in THA. Based on published randomized, controlled trials (RCTs) identified in PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, th...
متن کاملCeramic-on-ceramic bearings total hip arthroplasty in young patients
BACKGROUND The results of ceramic-on-ceramic (CoC) total hip arthroplasty (THA) in younger patients were not univocal. This study aims to evaluate the results of CoC bearing THA in patients younger than 50 years. METHODS A total of 90 younger patients performed CoC THAs during March 2003 and May 2008 were included in this study. Hip function and activity were evaluated with Harris hip score a...
متن کاملInflammatory pseudotumor after ceramic-on-ceramic total hip arthroplasty
We present a unique case of a symptomatic adverse local tissue reaction in a patient with a ceramic-on-ceramic total hip bearing surface. To our knowledge, this pathological finding has not yet been described in a ceramic-on-ceramic articulation without a cobalt-chromium alloy trunnion or modular neck component as a source of metal wear. We conclude that despite its mechanical mostly benign wea...
