Wear and Range of Motion of Different Femoral Head Sizes
Journal of Arthroplasty, 10/12/09
Hammerberg EM et al. – There was no statistical difference in linear wear rates and annual or total penetration rates when 28–mm and 32–mm heads were compared to 38–mm and 44–mm heads. Volumetric wear was 12.4 mm3/y higher with bigger heads. Range of motion did not differ. Larger femoral head sizes show no evidence of an accelerated wear pattern when used with Durasul.
