The Importance of Fatigue Loading When Assessing Liner/Shell Distraction Resistance and Congruency for Modular Acetabular Components /
Modular acetabular components are now widely used in total hip arthroplasty (THA). A primary performance requirement for these two-piece acetabular cup designs is to maintain in vivo locking integrity between the polyethylene liner and the metal acetabular shell. Standards have been proposed that in...
