Sequentially irradiated and annealed UHMWPE hip and knee retrievals showed subsurface Highly cross-linked polyethylene was developed to improve the wear resistance of UHMWPE bearing surfaces in total hip arthroplasty. First generation irradiated and annealed polyethylene showed high oxidation Summary
Introduction
From a large 3D Caucasian bone data base, female population had significantly larger acetabular anatomical anteversion angle and combined acetabular-femoral anteversion angle than that of male population. There was no significant difference in femoral neck anteversion angles between the groups. Combined Anteversion (CA) angle of acetabular component and femoral neck is an important parameter for a successful Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA). The purpose of this study was to electronically measure the version angles of native acetabulum and femur in matured normal Caucasian population from large 3D CT data base. Our question was if there was any significant difference in CA between male and female population.Summary
