Guest guest Posted August 15, 1999 Report Share Posted August 15, 1999 Oh by the way, it isnt just the plastic ball part that wears out. (and it is possible to replace just that part, my surgeon told me) It is usually the cement and even the cementless kind deteriourating where the prosthesis goes in the leg bone. You might ask him about this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
