Retrieval Analysis of Sequentially Annealed Highly Crosslinked Polyethylene Used in Total Hip Arthroplasty
BACKGROUND First-generation annealed and second-generation sequentially annealed, highly crosslinked polyethylenes (HXLPEs) have documented reduced clinical wear rates in their first decade of clinical use compared with conventional gamma inert-sterilized polyethylene. However, for both types of annealed HXLPE formulations, little is known about their reasons for revision, their in vivo oxidati...
متن کاملOutcome in design-specific comparisons between highly crosslinked and conventional polyethylene in total hip arthroplasty
Background and purpose - Most registry studies regarding highly crosslinked polyethylene (XLPE) have focused on the overall revision risk. We compared the risk of cup and/or liner revision for specific cup and liner designs made of either XLPE or conventional polyethylene (CPE), regarding revision for any reason and revision due to aseptic loosening and/or osteolysis. Patients and methods - Usi...
متن کاملCORR Insights(®): oxidized zirconium head on crosslinked polyethylene liner in total hip arthroplasty: a 7- to 12-year in vivo comparative wear study.
BACKGROUND Osteolysis resulting from wear debris production from the bearing surfaces is a major factor limiting long-term survival of hip implants. Oxidized zirconium head on crosslinked polyethylene (XLPE) is a modern bearing coupling. However, midterm in vivo wear data of this coupling are not known. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES The purpose of this study was to investigate in vivo whether the combin...
متن کاملIn vivo wear particles of remelted highly crosslinked polyethylene after total hip arthroplasty: report of four cases.
This is the first report of in vivo wear particles from four total hip arthroplasties using remelted highly crosslinked polyethylene. The number of particles was (1.51 ± 0.45) × 10(7) g(-1) (mean ± standard error); particle size (equivalent circle diameter), 0.72 ± 0.15 µm; and roundness, 1.45 ± 0.05. Remelted highly crosslinked polyethylene generates fewer, rounder, equivalently sized particle...
متن کاملIn Vivo Wear Particles of Annealed Highly Cross-Linked Polyethylene in Total Hip Arthropalsty
INTRODUCTION: Polyethylene wear particles induce cytokine release by macrophage, which leads to osteolysis and aseptic loosening in total joint arthroplasties. Generation of polyethylene wear particles is one of the most important factors that affecting mid-term and long-term results of total hip arthroplasty (THA). Therefore, to reduce wear generation and to achieve better long-term results of...
