Total Hip Arthroplasty Wear Behaviour of Different Articulations

Total Hip Arthroplasty Wear Behaviour of Different Articulations / edited by Karl Knahr.

During the 2011 EFORT Congress in Copenhagen, many interesting topics relating to tribology in total hip arthroplasty were discussed during a special day devoted entirely to the subject. EFORT decided that, given the wide interest in these discussions, publication of the presentations would be warml...
