Abstract
Particle disease is the condition caused by wear debris on surrounding tissues and influences the well-being of arthroplasty patients. This condition is multifactorial due to the type of bearing couple, head size and implant position. Subsequent periprosthetic osteolysis and soft tissue reactions, can lead to revision THA surgery. The periprosthetic synovial membrane (synovial-like interface membrane, SLIM) is used in diagnostics when the cause of implant failure is uncertain. Detailed analysis of synovial fluid and bone marrow could improve the diagnostic procedure and strengthen the cases for revision surgery and the underlying biology. A large number of research approaches on this topic have evolved and continue to be utilized in the clinic.
