Wear of yttria-zirconia (zirconia) in the femoral head was investigated in mature mongrel dogs weighing 10 to 13 kg. Two dogs, which were used as a control group, were sacrificed 18 months after implantation of the uncemented modular hip system with an alumina ceramic (alumina) femoral head. A zirco

## Abstract Modern ceramic bearings used in total hip arthroplasty (THA) consist of a femoral head (ball) articulating inside a hemispherical acetabular cup (socket); the ball and socket are made of alumina (Al~2~O~3~) and Al~2~O~3~‐based composite materials. In the present study, total hip bearing

## Abstract The resurgence of metal–metal bearings has renewed interest in hip resurfacing, but a paucity of information exists regarding femoral cementing technique. We developed a laboratory model in which 72 open‐cell foam specimens were used to simulate bone. Analyses of two cement viscosities,

Alumina (Al 2 O 3 ) bearings in total hip arthroplasty lead to low wear rates, but catastrophic failure of Al 2 O 3 femoral heads, while rare, remains a concern. In the present work, a composite of Al 2 O 3 and niobium (Nb) was tested in vitro for potential use as an alternative femoral head materia

In contrast to the much-studied mechanism of aseptic loosening of the metal-polyethylene joint couple, the mechanism responsible for failure of ceramic-ceramic (CC) total hip arthroplasties (THAs) has not been evaluated. The aim of this study was to conduct a systematic characterization of the in ui
