A modular layered acetabular component (metal-polyethylene-ceramic) was developed in Japan for use in alumina ceramic-on-ceramic total hip replacement. Between May 1999 and July 2000, we performed 35 alumina ceramic-on-ceramic total hip replacements in 30 consecutive patients, using this layered component and evaluated the clinical and radiological results over a mean follow-up of 5.8 years (5 to 6.5). A total of six hips underwent revision, one for infection, two for dislocation with looseni...
