Specific material effects of wear-particle-induced inflammation and osteolysis at the bone–implant interface: A rat model

Introduction: Wear particles produced from prosthetic joints may play critical roles in periprosthetic inflammatory reactions and osteolysis. The objective of this study was to quantify and compare the response to wear debris from different biomaterials at the bone–implant interface in a rat knee mo...
