Histology of the Thrust Plate—Bone Interface

  • Chapter
The Thrust Plate Hip Prosthesis

Abstract

A thrust plate prosthesis (TPP) implant of the second generation was removed after 3 years and 8 months due to pain and functional impairment of unknown origin. The thrust plate was made of titanium with a rough, shot-blasted surface (see Chap. 2). The thrust plate—bone interface was subjected to a histological examination as follows.
