## Abstract Long term loosening of hip prostheses remains an important problem in orthopedics. Although various loosening mechanisms have been proposed, the exact process is still unclear. Particle disease and the pressure theory are widely known and generally accepted hypotheses to explain long te

## Abstract The hypothesis tested in this study was that perioperative administration of the bisphosphonate zoledronate will reduce strain protectionโrelated calcar osteopenia and maintain functional integration of the femoral component in an ovine hemiarthroplasty model. Twelve sheep received a un
## Abstract Fibrous pseudocapsule around hip implants is an invariable finding at revision operations and is believed to release inflammatory mediators that stimulate bone resorption. Reactive oxygen species have been proposed to be causative factors in various disorders with tissue fibrosis. We we
## Abstract Particleโinduced osteolysis is a major cause of aseptic loosening after total joint replacement. The purpose of the current study was to evaluate the DNA damage repair capacity of macrophages in patients with aseptic hip loosening by determination of ERCC1. Moreover, we wanted to elucid
