Wear Rates of XLPE Nearly 50% Lower Than Previously Thought After Adjusting for Initial Creep: An RCT Comparing 4 Bearing Combinations

BACKGROUND: The ideal bearing combination for total hip arthroplasty (THA) remains debatable. Highly cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) is widely used, but long-term wear rates are not fully known, nor is how much the initial “creep,” if any, affects overall wear. Additionally, the use of oxidized zir...
