A systematic analysis of results available from in vitro, in vivo and clinical trials on the effects
of biocompatible calcium phosphate (CaP) coatings is presented. An overview of the most …

The value of implant retrieval analysis in orthopaedic surgery has been well recognized.
Prosthetic devices retrieved for cause at revision surgery (for implant failure) or devices …

More than twenty years ago, hydroxyapatite (HA), calcium phosphate ceramics, was
introduced as a coating for cementless hip prostheses. The choice of this ceramic is due to …

Background: The increasing demand for bone implants with improved osseointegration
properties has prompted researchers to develop various coating types for metal implants …

Prosthetic joint infection (PJI) is the second most common cause of arthroplasty failure.
Though infrequent, it is one of the most devastating complications since it is associated with …

In the present investigation, nano hydroxyapatite (HAp) and fluorine substituted
hydroxyapatite (FHAp) with varying fluorine concentrations have been successfully prepared …

Hydroxyapatite coatings for THA promote bone ongrowth, but bone and coating are exposed
to stress shielding-driven osteoclastic resorption. We asked:(1) if the resorption of …

Calcium phosphate (hydroxyapatite or HA) coatings have been applied to Custom Osseous
Integrated Implants (COIIs) to improve the quality of the bone‐implant integration, yet little is …

Hydroxyapatite (HA) coatings have become very popular in uncemented total hip
arthroplasty (THA). Analysis of retrievals and tissue samples from an HA-coated femoral …

We describe the clinical and radiological results of 38 total hip replacements (THR) using
the JRI Furlong hydroxyapatite-ceramic (HAC)-coated femoral component in patients …
