Corrosion at the Cone/Taper Interface Leads to Failure of Large-diameter Metal-on-metal Total Hip Arthroplasties

BACKGROUND: Metal-on-metal (MoM) THAs have reduced wear rates compared with metal-on-polyethylene. However, elevated serum metal ion levels and pseudotumors have been reported in large MoM articulations. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES: We therefore determined (1) if corrosion occurred at the cone/taper interfac...
