Adverse local tissue reaction after ceramic-on-ceramic total hip arthroplasty

Jérôme Valcarenghi et al. Acta Orthop Belg. 2022 Mar.

Abstract

We report a rare case of symptomatic adverse local tissue reaction in a patient with a ceramic-on-ceramic total hip bearing surface and review the literature. Probably, ceramic wear debris is not entirely inert and may lead to adverse local tissue reactions.
