Evidence for Gender-Specific Bone Loss Mechanisms in Periprosthetic Osteolysis
Osteolysis adjacent to total hip replacement (THR) prostheses is a major cause of their eventual failure. Periprosthetic osteolysis is associated with the production of bioactive particles, produced by the wear of articulating prosthesis surfaces. Wear particles invade the periprosthetic tissue, ind...
