Polyethylene (PE) wear has been shown to be a problem in long-term joint replacement using metal-on-PE bearing. The use of metallic heads articulating with metallic cups could solve this problem: success will be enhanced if wear and corrosion of the articulating surfaces are maintained at a low leve

## Abstract Our 32 and 38 mm alumina ceramic‐on‐metal (COM) bearings were run in a hip simulator study for comparison with 32 mm metal‐on‐metal (MOM) controls. The 32 mm MOM bearings demonstrated an overall wear rate of 1.58 mm^3^/million cycles (Mc) that was comparable to previous simulator studie
