The objective of this five-year prospective, blinded, randomised
controlled trial (RCT) was to compare femoral head penetration into
a vitamin E diffused highly cross-linked polyethylene (HXLPE) liner
with penetration into a medium cross-linked polyethylene control
liner using radiostereometric analysis. Patients scheduled for total hip arthroplasty (THA) were randomised
to receive either the study E1 (32 patients) or the control ArComXL
polyethylene (35 patients). The median age (range) of the overall
cohort was 66 years (40 to 76).Aims
