The Trident acetabular system is the second most common
Summary Statement. A FEA model built from CT-data of frozen cadaver has been validated and used for under-reaming experiments. 1 mm under-reaming can provide contact surface and micromotions that are acceptable and within the clinical relevance without high impact force. Introduction. Long-term cup fixation and stability in total hip arthroplasty (THA) is directly related to the bone ingrowths between the porous cup and the acetabulum. To achieve the initial cup setting, 1 mm of under reaming is becoming the gold standard for
