Abstract:
The best bearing to use in the young active population remains unknown because there are currently no evidence-based data to rely on. This article compares the prevalence of periacetabular osteolysis using computerized tomography in patients with metal-on-metal, ceramic-on-ceramic, and metal-on-cross-linked bearings at a minimum 5-year follow-up.
