Further, the effect of large femoral heads with ceramic-on-ceramic THA is unclear, due to limited availability and published data.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Surgeons must balance the benefits of larger head size with the increased risk of volumetric wear when determining the appropriate head size for a given patient.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1007\/s11420-012-9287-7","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2013,1,23]],"date-time":"2013-01-23T15:58:48Z","timestamp":1358956728000},"page":"270-274","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":64,"title":["Ideal Femoral Head Size in Total Hip Arthroplasty Balances Stability and Volumetric Wear"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"8","author":[{"given":"Michael B.","family":"Cross","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Hospital for Special Surgery, 535 East 70th Street, 10021, New York, NY, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Denis","family":"Nam","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Hospital for Special Surgery, 535 East 70th Street, 10021, New York, NY, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"David J.","family":"Mayman","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Hospital for Special Surgery, 535 East 70th Street, 10021, New York, NY, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2012,10,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-s11420-012-9287-7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1302\/0301-620X.63B2.7217144"},{"key":"bibr2-s11420-012-9287-7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s10195-010-0097-8"},{"key":"bibr3-s11420-012-9287-7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00003086-197509000-00016"},{"key":"bibr4-s11420-012-9287-7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2106\/00004623-198668070-00010"},{"key":"bibr5-s11420-012-9287-7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2106\/00004623-200009000-00010"},{"key":"bibr6-s11420-012-9287-7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2106\/00004623-200202000-00013"},{"key":"bibr7-s11420-012-9287-7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1302\/0301-620X.93B5.26309"},{"key":"bibr8-s11420-012-9287-7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/00016470310017893"},{"key":"bibr9-s11420-012-9287-7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00003086-198206000-00045"},{"key":"bibr10-s11420-012-9287-7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5435\/00124635-200800001-00018"},{"key":"bibr11-s11420-012-9287-7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1302\/0301-620X.93B7.26054"},{"key":"bibr12-s11420-012-9287-7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.arth.2004.09.006"},{"key":"bibr13-s11420-012-9287-7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/jbm.820231405"},{"key":"bibr14-s11420-012-9287-7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2106\/00004623-200008000-00006"},{"key":"bibr15-s11420-012-9287-7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1054\/arth.2002.33664"},{"key":"bibr16-s11420-012-9287-7","unstructured":"Dyrkacz RMR, Turgeon T, Ojo O, Brandt JM, Wyss U.
