✦ Synopsis

A TEM-sample preparation method for small amounts of fretting wear debris is presented. After embedding in a resin, the debris are ultramicrotomed to ultra-thin sections. In this way, valuable observation of nanocrystalline fretting wear debris originating from TiN-coatings could be rapidly obtained.

## Abstract The mechanism of hip arthroplasties loosening is related to the migration of wear debris throughout the implant environment. __In vivo__, polyethylene particles (PE) were shown to infiltrate the bone implant interface and the medullary spaces of the cancellous bone. Our test hypothesis

Although several studies have reported the physical properties of debris particles in tissues adjacent to failed total joint implants, few have correlated the results of particle analysis with other clinical and implant variables believed to influence implant wear. We retrospectively analyzed 41 fib
