## Abstract Bacterial remnants and subclinical biofilms residing on prosthesis surfaces have been speculated to play a role in hip implant loosening by opsonizing otherwise relatively inert wear particles. The innate immune system recognizes these microbial pathogen‐associated molecular patterns (P
This study was performed to quantitate vascularity in periprosthetic tissues of loose total hip replacements (THRs), because most likely revascularization and endothelial cells are important for implant osseointegration and loosening. Interface and pseudocapsular tissue samples obtained from loose T
