title: [Damage of hip prosthesis causing failure in arthroplasty].
abstract: Analysis of retrieved hip joint was presented. Bone remodeling considering the distribution of friction products was discussed. Scanning electron microscopy methods were used to perform on structural analysis. We expressed a surface changing prosthetic head as Ra (roughness average). X-Ray Microanalysis was applied to study products of degradation.
