title: [The artificial joint failure types and analysis].
abstract: This paper focused on the joint prosthesis failure event, through survey and investigation in different kinds of case studies, generalized and analyzed the failure reason of joint prosthesis. The failure reason been categorized according to the failure occurring time: short-term, medium-term and long-term, and for each category, the characteristics and root causes are discussed, and the corresponding countermeasures put forward.
