Peri-prosthetic bone density after cemented versus trabecular fixation
Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery BR; 2011; 93(B); 1033-1044

55 patients requiring fixation of the acetabular component were randomized to receive either a cemented polyethylene or a monobloc trabecular metal component with a polyethylene articular surface.
