Arthroplasty in Femoral Head Osteonecrosis [PDF]
Hip & Pelvis, 2014 Osteonecrosis of the femoral head is a destructive joint disease requiring early hip arthroplasty. The polyethylene-metal design using a 22-mm femoral head component, introduced by Charnley in 1950, has been widely used for over half a century. Since then, different materials with the capacity to minimize friction between bearing surfaces and various ...

Do ceramic femoral heads reduce taper fretting corrosion in hip arthroplasty? A retrieval study. [PDF]
, 2013 BACKGROUND: Previous studies regarding modular head-neck taper corrosion were largely based on cobalt chrome (CoCr) alloy femoral heads. Less is known about head-neck taper corrosion with ceramic femoral heads.
