Acetabular Component Deformation with Press-Fit Fixation
Matthew Squire MD, et al. - Acetabular component deformation secondary to forces encountered during insertion is a potential consequence of the press-fit technique...For hard-on-hard bearing surfaces, such in vivo deformation of acetabular shells may result in negative clinical consequences such as equatorial loading with increased wear and potential seizing of components, chipping of ceramic inserts, or locking mechanism damage [more...]
