(a), (b) Exemplary cross-sections of three femoral heads with currently used RHAs, where the cups were fixed on femoral heads with the polymethacrylate cement (courtesy of Dr. S. Łazowski, Histopathomorphology Lab., Poznan, Poland); (c) cement pressing the trabecular marrow cavities occupies large volume (bright areas) of the femoral heads, sections showing cement penetration zone in femoral head occupying more than 1/3 of its volume in [4].
