Effect of head size and rotation on taper corrosion in a hip simulator

Effect of head size and rotation on taper corrosion in a hip simulator

Aims: This study investigates head-neck taper corrosion with varying head size in a novel hip simulator instrumented to measure corrosion related electrical activity under torsional loads. Methods: In all, six 28 mm and six 36 mm titanium stem-cobalt chrome head pairs with polyethylene sockets were...
