The adoption of laser melting technology for the manufacture of functionally graded cobalt chrome alloy femoral stems
… the potential of more flexible and lightweight cobalt chromium molybdenum (CoCrMo) femoral stems that can be manufactured using Selective Laser Melting (SLM). Square pore cellular structures with compressive properties that are similar to human bone have been presented and incorporated into …

Surface replacement of proximal interphalangeal joint (SR-PIPJ) arthroplasty - A case series
… interphalangeal joint replacement consists of a cobalt-chrome alloy component articulating with an ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene component. After experiencing a high rate of subsidence and complications with a pyrocarbon implant, our unit has changed to the cemented SR system in the …

Method to Determine Compressive Bending Performance in Static and Fatigue Loading for Pediatric Non-Fusion Devices
… analyzed based on the rod material (titanium and cobalt chrome), active length (76-mm and 376-mm), and construct type (F1717 and growing-rod). Results: The force-displacement curves and maximum principle stress for each whole model were evaluated. The longer active lengths required a smaller force …

Cellular Corrosion of CoCrMo Total Knee Implants: Understanding Underlying Mechanisms Through Retrieval Analysis and Simulated Inflammatory Conditions
… a unique type of damage has been investigated in cobalt-chrome (CoCr) implants that remains poorly understood and highly controversial. Originally, it was believed that this damage type was caused by inflammatory cells directly attacking the metal surface, leading to damage of the oxide layer. …
