DOI: 10.1530/eor-22-0036
Abstract: Hip joints with bearings composed of cobalt–chromium alloy (metal-on-metal bearings) have been one of the most widely used implants in joint replacement arthroplasty. Unfortunately, these implants can contribute to a complication called aseptic lymphocyte-dominated vasculitis-associated… read more here.

DOI: 10.2106/jbjs.rvw.17.00169
Abstract: Metal hypersensitivity has been reported in various case reports and cohort studies. Type-IV (delayed-type) hypersensitivity to various implant metals, most frequently nickel, has been implicated in the pathogenesis of metal hypersensitivity.Currently, there are no guidelines… read more here.
