The cost-effectiveness of different generations ceramic-on-ceramic implants in primary total hip arthroplasty: a matched population-based study
Nationwide data suggests that 3rd-CoCs appear to be more cost-effective than MoPs. In contrast, 4th-CoCs demonstrated limited short-term value and uncertain cost-effectiveness, warranting future long-term evaluation.
