DOI: 10.1007/s00402-021-04273-5
Abstract: Despite excellent long-term survival, total hip arthroplasty (THA) can fail due to aseptic loosening, dislocations, sepsis and periprosthetic fractures, all of which remain considerably burdensome. Aseptic loosening is one of the main causes of THA… read more here.
