BACKGROUND
Following the reintroduction of metal-on-metal articulating surfaces for total hip arthroplasty in Europe in 1988, we developed a surface arthroplasty prosthetic system using a… (More)
BACKGROUND
Pseudotumor-like periprosthetic tissue reactions around metal-on-metal (M-M) hip replacements can cause pain and lead to revision surgery. The cause of these reactions is not well… (More)
Outcome evaluations of lower extremity joint reconstructions should include an assessment of patient activity. In vivo wear assessments of total joint prostheses should be based on a measure of use,… (More)
The complexity of knee geometry requires correct prosthesis design and size selection for the recipient. This study analyzes the morphological relationships within the knee; 16 linear anatomical… (More)

Of 285 total hip arthroplasties (260 patients) performed for primary osteoarthritis during a six-year period, 135 were resurfaced using a Tharies prosthesis (total hip articular replacement with… (More)
The UCLA total shoulder arthroplasty was designed to mobilize the shoulder joint in order to permit normal anthropometric range of motion and durable long-term fixation of the components. The… (More)

Thirty-five normal cadaver knees were tested manually in six positions of the knee using apparatus designed to measure the moment-rotation responses for both varus-valgus angulation and torsion of… (More)
We evaluated radiologic and clinical features affecting the outcome of hybrid metal-on-metal surface arthroplasty of the hip in 119 hips in patients 40 years and younger. Only the hips that had… (More)
