TY - JOUR AU - Tanzer, Michael AU - Tanzer, Dylan PY - 2017 TI - Editorial “Mid-term results of the BIOLOX delta ceramic-on-ceramic total hip arthroplasty” JF - Annals of Joint; Vol 2 (November 2017): Annals of Joint Y2 - 2017 KW - N2 - Historically, ceramic-on-ceramic (COC) articulations in total hip arthroplasty (THA) have been shown to have the lowest rate of wear and osteolysis (1). However, the use of COC bearings has been lessened by their risk of fracture, squeaking and revision surgery (2-4). As a result, in 2003, Ceramtec (Plochingen, Germany), the largest manufacturer of ceramic bearings in the world, introduced their 4th generation of ceramic components—Biolox Delta.
