The aim of the present study was to investigate the long-term outcome and the wear characteristics of two distinct types of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) liners in total hip arthroplasty (THA). ⋯ The long-term performance of Enduron liners was worse than that of Trilogy liners. Further clinical follow-up may be necessary in patients with Enduron PE liners in order to avoid catastrophic complications.
