Objectives. Acetabular retractors have been implicated in damage to the femoral
and obturator nerves during total hip replacement. The aim of this
study was to determine the anatomical relationship between retractor
placement and these nerves. Methods. A
Our study aimed to examine not only the incidence but also the
impact of noise from two types of total hip replacement articulations:
ceramic-on-ceramic and ceramic-on-polyethylene. We performed a case-controlled study comparing subjective and
objective questionnaire scores of patients receiving a ceramic-on-ceramic
or a ceramic-on-polyethylene total hip replacement by a single surgeon.Objectives
