pubmed:abstractText |
Cross-linking has decreased the wear of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene, a cause of osteolysis leading to total joint replacement failure. Compared with melting or annealing, doping cross-linked ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene with vitamin E stabilizes free radicals from irradiation while maintaining mechanical properties and wear resistance. This study was done to determine the local tissue effects of free vitamin E and vitamin E eluted from ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene implants in the joint space.
