Abstract

Two patients were evaluated for the possibility of hypersensitivity to a Metasul articulation (Centerpulse, Austin, Tex) coupled with total hip arthroplasty. Serum was tested with a lymphocyte proliferation assay, and the capsular tissues from the hip were examined for perivascular lymphocytes. The diagnosis of hypersensitivity to Metasul could not be confirmed in these patients, and ultimately, the painful hip arthroplasties were felt to be caused by a combination of musculoskeletal problems.
