The Impact of Local Physiology on the Corrosion of Orthopedic Alloys
… termed inflammatory cell-induced corrosion (ICIC). Additionally, the corrosion resistance of implant alloys can be analyzed using electrochemistry. This thesis aims to investigate the effects of local physiology on the corrosion of CoCrMo. The first study in this thesis investigates the …

Cellular Corrosion of CoCrMo Total Knee Implants: Understanding Underlying Mechanisms Through Retrieval Analysis and Simulated Inflammatory Conditions
… microscopy was utilized to identify areas of ICIC-like damage scares. CoCrMo, zirconium nitride (ZrN)coated, and Oxinium knee implants were intentionally damaged by electrocautery from both Bovie and Aquamantys sources by a three second hover method. Bovie electrocautery damage was done at …

The effects of simulated inflammatory conditions on the corrosion and fretting corrosion of CoCrMo alloy
… report of inflammatory cell-induced corrosion (ICIC) of CoCrMo alloy challenged traditional understanding of the relationship between biology and corrosion of hip implants. To better understand the role biology may play in the corrosion of CoCrMo-based implants, this study explored the mechanism …
