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
