“…To date, MoM bearings have been implanted in more than one million patients worldwide [4]. At the height of its use, hip resurfacing arthroplasties using MoM prostheses accounted for 29% to 46% of all primary THAs in patients younger than 55 years [21].…”

“…The local and systemic significance of higher metal ion concentrations still are not fully understood, but adverse local tissue reactions (ALTRs) or adverse reaction to metal debris [14] have been associated with MoM implants [8,11,20,22,24]. These lesions are characterized by areas of necrosis bounded by perivascular lymphocyte-dominated inflammation [6].…”

“…Although complications such as femoral neck fractures [37], femoral component loosening [36], and questions regarding the biologic effects of elevated metal ion levels and metal debris [10,12,22,23] have become the focus of some studies, HRA is still regularly performed. This is because metal-on-metal HRA offers several conceptual advantages over conventional stem type THA, such as improved joint stability, lower volumetric wear, less femoral bone resection, and a more physiologic load transfer on the proximal femur.…”
