The objectives of this study were to determine whether submicron-sized ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) wear debris was present in synovial fluid surrounding knee implants, and to report on the utility of a light-scattering technique for the in situ analysis of submicron-sized wear
## Abstract The size, shape, and number of polyethylene wear particles found in synovial fluids of patients 1 year after implantation of 22 wellβfunctioning total knee prostheses (11 contemporary mobileβbearing type, 11 posteriorβstabilized type) were determined. Polyethylene wear particles were is
