This project investigates the reasons behind failures of hip replacements by utilizing advanced microscopy techniques. It aims to understand the physiological responses to implants and the processes leading to their degradation, which can cause inflammation and prosthesis rejection.
Population in developed countries is aging.
Besides other socioeconomic effects, this significantly affects European health systems, as ageing-specific therapies and treatments have become important cost factors.
In this context, hip replacements belong to one of the most frequent and costly treatments.
Recent reports on mass failures of new types of hip prosthesis revealed insufficient understanding of physiological processes leading to prosthesis failure.
Studies on hip prosthesis failures rev…
