Periprosthetic bone resorption has been implicated in the failure of total joint arthroplasty. Osteolysis is reported to be associated with bone resorption induced by bone-resorbing cytokines, which are released from macrophages and fibroblasts in periprosthetic tissues after stimulation by wear deb
