Elevated metal concentrations in cerebrospinal fluid of patients with arthroplasty implants in situ – the NeuroWear pilot study
Objectives: Arthroprosthetic metal exposure has been linked to new-onset neurological dysfunctions. Evidence of systemic distribution of all so-called arthroplasty metals including respective concentrations in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is largely missing. Whether and to what extent arthroplasty metals [for full text, please go to the a.m. URL]
