Contact Patch to Rim Distance Predicts Metal Ion Levels in Hip Resurfacing

BACKGROUND: Component design, size, acetabular orientation, patient gender, and activity level have been suggested as factors leading to elevated metal ion concentrations after-on-metal hip resurfacing arthroplasty (MMHRA). The calculation of the contact patch to rim (CPR) distance integrates compon...
