Metal wear and corrosion products generated by hip replacements have been linked to adverse local tissue reactions. Recent investigations of the stem/head taper junction have identified this modular interface as another possible source of metal debris; however, little is known regarding other modular metallic interfaces, their ability to produce metal debris, and possibly to provide insight in the mechanisms that produce metal debris.
