Cellular Corrosion of CoCrMo Total Knee Implants: Understanding Underlying Mechanisms Through Retrieval Analysis and Simulated Inflammatory Conditions
… data collected to serve as surrogate markers of corrosion. Fe/C ratios of the Bovie electrocautery damaged knee implant were shown to be statistically higher than that of necropsy retrieved implants. Median Ra measurements were shown to be statistically less (p=0.008) for Bovie damaged areas …

Iatrogenic Electrocautery Damage and Cellular-Based Corrosion of Total Joint Arthroplasty Biomaterials
… implants due the material’s high strength, high corrosion resistance, and biocompatibility. The release of metal ions and potential occurrence of metallosis in TJA has been shown to be detrimental to the longevity of the implant. The mechanisms leading to this increase in metal ion concentrations …

The Effects of Synovial Fluid and Inflammatory Cells on Orthopaedic Implant Alloys
… are chosen for their mechanical properties, corrosion resistance, high affinity for bone, and biocompatibility. However, they can be susceptible to mechanical and electrochemical wear, leading to the release of metal ions. Osteoarthritis and inflammation can alter the composition of Synovial …
