Abstract
In 2011, a clinical trial of total hip arthroplasty with Biolox DeltaŴ ceramic on ceramic started in Japan before the clinical approval. We report the result with 33 hips as a mid-term one. No wear-related complication and no dislocation occurred with the maximum of 13.2 years follow-up. After the trial and the approval, we have continued to use Biolox DeltaŴ ceramic on ceramic even for difficult cases and the bearing couple is now our first choice for young and active patients.
期刊介绍:
MEDICAL IMPLANTS are being used in every organ of the human body. Ideally, medical implants must have biomechanical properties comparable to those of autogenous tissues without any adverse effects. In each anatomic site, studies of the long-term effects of medical implants must be undertaken to determine accurately the safety and performance of the implants. Today, implant surgery has become an interdisciplinary undertaking involving a number of skilled and gifted specialists. For example, successful cochlear implants will involve audiologists, audiological physicians, speech and language therapists, otolaryngologists, nurses, neuro-otologists, teachers of the deaf, hearing therapists, cochlear implant manufacturers, and others involved with hearing-impaired and deaf individuals.
