متن کاملChronology of Total Hip Joint Replacement and Materials Development
The development of hip joint materials is one of the most challenging problems to prostheses technology in this millennium. Several types of materials have been developed for this purpose. The materials like glass, polymer (poly-tetra-fluoro-ethylene / PTFE or Teflon and ultra-high-molecular-weight-polyethylene or UHMWPE), metal (stainless steel, CoCr alloy, and CoCrMo alloy), ceramics (alumina...
