Metal-on-Metal Articulation and Wear
My View
This Wright Medical Technologies booklet written by Irina Timmerman and Harlan Amstutz, MD, is a well-balanced review of the facts. It brings together much of the information I have been dredging up from all over the place. A nice scientific treatment that inspires some confidence – not marketing and PR spin by scientific amatuers!
