Tribocorrosion: Ceramic and Oxidized Zirconium vs Cobalt-Chromium Heads in Total Hip Arthroplasty

This matched-cohort study aims to compare tribocorrosion between matched ceramic and cobalt-chromium femoral head trunnions and between matched Oxinium and cobalt-chromium femoral head trunnions. Secondary objectives were to investigate whether taper design, depth of trunnion, implantation time, age...
