MARS MRI in Revision THA With a Ceramic Femoral Head and Titanium Sleeve

Description

Revision total hip replacement using a ceramic head utilizes a titanium sleeve which introduced another articulation into the system that may lead to a local soft tissue reaction. The purpose of this study is to determine the frequency, size and types of MRI documented local tissue reactions in individuals doing well after a revision total hip replacement and ceramic bearing surface that utilizes a titanium sleeve.

Conditions

Arthroplasty, Replacement, Hip
