March 6, 2013 updated by: Young Hoo Kim, Ewha Womans University

Comparison of Ceramic-on-Ceramic and Ceramic-on-Highly-Cross-Linked Polyethylene Bearings in Primary Cementless Total Hip Arthroplasty in the Same Patients

The purpose of this prospective, randomized study was to compare the clinical and radiographic results and the prevalence of osteolysis of the cementless total hip arthroplasty with an alumina-on-alumina bearings one side and alumina-on-highly cross-linked polyethylene bearings on the other side in the young and active patients.
