  • Descrição: Hylamer and conventional polyethylene acetabular liners of the same design, revised for a variety of reasons, were examined and compared to assess the performance of Hylamer as a bearing material. Clinical damage modes, linear wear rates, oxidation levels, and mechanical properties were measured. In both series, many liners were retrieved for dislocation. Wear/osteolysis was the most common reason for retrieval in the Hylamer series, while none of the conventional polyethylene liners were retrieved for this reason. Nearly all liners exhibited abrasion, burnishing, scratching, and creep. The Hylamer liners had more cracking, delamination, and pitting. The Hylamer liners had an average linear wear rate of 0.32 mm/year, while the conventional polyethylene liners had an average wear rate of 0.20 mm/year. Due to sample size, no statistical difference in wear rate was noted between the two groups. In general, both the Hylamer and conventional polyethylene showed oxidation peaks subsurface, resulting from their exposure to gamma radiation in air. Liners with elevated oxidation had decreased ultimate tensile strength, elongation, and toughness. For given oxidation levels, the corresponding mechanical properties of Hylamer appeared lower than those of conventional polyethylene. The ultimate tensile strength values ranged from 14 to 33 MPa for Hylamer and 19 to 32 MPa for conventional polyethylene. Elongation ranges were 19% to 350% (Hylamer) and 80% to 375% (conventional). The Hylamer retrievals in this study gave initial indications of performance; Hylamer appeared to behave similarly, but not superiorly, to conventional polyethylene, in the early functional period with respect to clinical wear and clinical performance. Both Hylamer and conventional polyethylene liners were degraded by gamma sterilization in air, with Hylamer liners demonstrating greater property changes.
