  • Direction and rate of socket wear in Charnley low-friction arthroplasty. Abstract Text:

    b m wroblewskiB M Wroblewski,

    Twenty-two high-density polyethylene sockets from Charnley low-friction arthroplasties have been studied. Acrylic casts and shadowgraph techniques were used to measure both the real and radiographic rates of wear; these rates showed a significant correlation. In the sagittal plane, nine of the sockets had worn lateral to a line drawn vertically from the centre of curvature of the socket, 12 had worn medial to that line and only one was worn exactly in the line. In the coronal plane, nine sockets had worn in front of a similar vertical line, two behind that line and 11 had worn exactly in the line. Evidence of impingement of the neck of the stem onto the rim of the socket was found in 14 patients; this is considered to be one of the causes of socket loosening. The obvious solution is to reduce the diameter of the neck of the stem from 12.5 mm to 10 mm; provided that it is made of cold-formed, high nitrogen-content stainless steel, this narrower neck is strong enough not to fracture.
