It is well known that osteolysis induced by polyethylene wear debris is the main cause of long-term failure of hip and knee prostheses. We developed a treatment of medical-grade ultra-high molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) in order to improve its tribologic properties and reduce its wear. Medic

## Abstract Reduction of wear with highly crosslinked polyethylene (HXLPE) has been reported in __in vitro__ and __in vivo__ studies of total hip prostheses. However, use of HXLPE in total knee prostheses is still controversial. The aim of this study was to compare __in vivo__ polyethylene wear par

## Abstract ## Background: Zirconia (ZrO~2~) ceramics combined with highly cross‐linked polyethylene appears to be a promising approach to minimize wear in artificial knee joints. The wear performance of yttria‐stabilized zirconia (YZr) femoral condyles on 7‐Mrad tibial inserts was compared in a k
