  3. Hip prosthesis zones - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hip_prosthesis_zones

    Zones of a hip prosthesis, by the DeLee and Charnley system, [1] and the Gruen system. [2] After hip replacement, hip prosthesis zones are regions in the interface between prosthesis material and the surrounding bone. These are used as reference regions when describing for example complications including hip prosthesis loosening on medical imaging.

  4. Hip resurfacing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hip_resurfacing

    Hip resurfacing has been developed as a surgical alternative to total hip replacement (THR). The procedure consists of placing a cap (usually made of cobalt-chrome metal), which is hollow and shaped like a mushroom, over the head of the femur while a matching metal cup (similar to what is used with a THR) is placed in the acetabulum (pelvis socket), replacing the articulating surfaces of the ...

  5. Retinal implant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retinal_implant

    The close proximity between the implant and the retina also increases the possibility of thermal damage to the retina from heat generated by the implant. [4] Subretinal implants require intact inner and middle retinal layers, and therefore are not beneficial for retinal diseases extending beyond the outer photoreceptor layer.

  7. Artificial facet replacement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artificial_facet_replacement

    Research is ongoing in the efficacy determination of artificial replacements for the facet joints of the human spine. An artificial facet replacement is a joint prosthesis intended to replace the natural facets and other posterior elements of the spine, restoring normal (or near-normal) motion while providing stabilization of spinal segments.
