Long-term outcomes of small head metal-on-metal compared to ceramic-on-polyethylene primary total hip arthroplasty: a registry-based cohort study
Overall, the cumulative risk of all-cause revision was almost twice as high in patients with a small head MoM as compared to a CoP THA over the 20-year period. However, most of the excess in revisions among MoM patients occurred between three and 14 years postoperative.
