Popis: | Historically resurfacing arthroplasty with metal on polyethylene bearings (Wagner cup) has had high failure rates due to the tissue reaction from the high volumetric polyethylene wear. In our days, with advanced metal-on-metal bearings, the volumetric wear has been reduced, and resurfacing hip arthroplasty becomes a bone-conserving alternative to standard total hip arthroplasty in young and active patients [1]. |
