Description:

Is the use of ceramic-on-ceramic in young patients the new standard of care? Yes, says Lee.  In fact c-on-c has better wear, is more reliable and provides more options. Not so fast says Schmalzried. Survivorship and function are no better, there is a squeaking and fracture risk. Who wins this debate? You be the judge.
