Abstract
HA-coated hip prostheses were retrieved from elderly patients after death. Histological analysis, scanning electron microscopy and microanalysis by energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometry were performed on the same sections. These revealed good osseointegration of the implant material and evolution of bone and material.
