Radiographic Assessment of the Thickness Lost from Polyethylene Tibial Inserts That Had Been Sterilized Differently
Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery, 07/03/08
Collier MB et al. - In this total knee design, tibial polyethylene performance improved markedly after discontinuation of the gamma radiation in air sterilization technique. Future concerns are that bearings sterilized with radiation in an inert gas may oxidize in vivo and develop fatigue wear because of free radicals generated during sterilization with radiation and that nonirradiated bearings may undergo greater losses in thickness from routine burnishing since they lack the cross-linking that accompanies sterilization with radiation.
