Analysis of polyethylene wear debris using micro-Raman spectroscopy: a report on the presence of beta-carotene.

This paper describes micro-Raman spectroscopy of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene wear debris isolated from revised knee replacements. The novel application of micro-Raman spectroscopy to the analysis of in vivo-generated wear debris was used to evaluate the chemical nature of individual, retrieved polyethylene particles. The analysis revealed the presence of beta-carotene on particles ...

Highly cross-linked polyethylene acetabular liners retrieved four to five years after revision surgery: a report of two cases.

There is currently considerable interest in the use of highly cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) acetabular liners for total hip arthroplasty (THA). In literature, only a single retrieval analysis of one type of XLPE liner implanted for greater than four years exists. The purpose of the present report is to quantify surface deviations in two XLPE liners implanted during revision THA and retrieved...

Observations on retrieved humeral polyethylene components from reverse total shoulder arthroplasty.

HYPOTHESIS Analyses of polyethylene components retrieved at revision of total knee, hip, and shoulder replacements have been used to study the effect of design, patient, and surgical factors on initial implant performance, but no studies have reported similar types of findings in retrieved humeral polyethylene components in reverse total shoulder arthroplasty. Our hypothesis is that while the c...

Radiographic and histopathologic analysis of osteolysis after total shoulder arthroplasty.

HYPOTHESIS This study analyzed clinical, radiographic, and histologic data from failed total shoulder arthroplasties (TSAs) to determine factors associated with osteolysis. MATERIALS AND METHODS From 1985 to 2005, 52 patients (mean age, 61.6 years) underwent revision TSA at a single institution at a mean of 4.3 years after their index surgery. Patients were retrospectively assigned to 2 cohor...

Anti-oxidation Treatment of Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene Components to Decrease Periprosthetic Osteolysis: Evaluation of Osteolytic and Osteogenic Properties of Wear Debris Particles in a Murine Calvaria Model

Wear debris-induced osteolysis remains the greatest limitation of long-term success for total joint replacements with ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) bearings. To address oxidative degradation post-gamma irradiation, manufacturers are investigating the incorporation of antioxidants into PE resins. Similarly, larger molecular weight monomers have been developed to increase cros...
