Rotura tardía de cabeza de cerámica en artoplastia de cadera con par de fricción cerámica-polietileno

Fracture of the ceramic femoral head in total hip replacement is a complication that has been reported in the short-term follow-up of ceramic-on-ceramic bearing surfaces. We report an unusual case of femoral head fracture in a ceramic-on-polyethylene total hip prosthesis with a follow-up of 11 years.
