Ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) wear particles play a significant role in failures of total joint replacements (TJRs). In this work, we investigated the distribution of these wear particles in periprosthetic tissues obtained from nine revisions of hip TJR. In the first step, all pe

## Abstract A case of a failed total hip replacement consisting of a Vitallium hip socket and a stainless steel femoral head prosthesis is presented. The mixed‐metal combination and inadequate design resulted in severe abrasive wear and fretting corrosion of the bearing surface, and the accumulatio
