A Minimum Ten Years of Follow-Up of Alumina Head on Delta Liner Total Hip Arthroplasty

Alumina head-on-delta liner cementless THA, using a large femoral head 32-36 mm in diameter, demonstrated satisfactory clinical and radiological results in the minimum 10 years of follow-up. Eccentric rim wear can occur even in delta ceramic liners that are known to have high strength, and this can lead to dislocation which can, in turn, increase the possibility of linear fracture.
