Abstract

The paper presents results of the assessment of the absence of tissue hypertrophy to the surface of the hip endoprosthesis cups. The cups were obtained as a result of revision operations, which caused their loosening. The study included analysis of chemical composition, SEM, macroscopic evaluation of surface, pitting corrosion resistance and hardness. Based on the result obtained, it can be concluded that the surface condition of the outer part of the cups affects bone tissue hypertrophy to the ground.
