English term or phrase: metal disease
From March 1996 to March 2006, XXX et al. (Italy) performed 117 primary THA in patients with FFN.
The mean age at the time of surgery was 66 (47–75) years.
They noted that the risk of dislocation is higher both after a hip fracture and in elderly patients.
The authors reported that a large femoral ball head articulating against a PE insert can lead to more wear, osteolysis and a higher failure rate.
Therefore, alumina CoC bearing couples with 32mm femoral ball heads were used in 35 patients (31 female, 4 male) without co-morbidities and ***metal disease.***

Io ho messo 'patologie da metallo' ma sono sicura che esiste un termine più appropriato.
Grazie!!

metallosi


Explanation:
Uno dei principali problemi relativi alla permanenza per lungo tempo nel corpo umano di placche o altri dispositivi metallici, specie se di composizione chimica non conosciuta, utilizzati come mezzi di osteosintesi, è rappresentato dalla metallosi.

http://www.acoi.it/medicinaelegalita/glossario-medico/metall...

Altre cause di mobilizzazione asettica possono essere l’usura del polietilene con eventuale conseguente metallosi. L’usura del polietilene di per sé non è causa di dolore ma i detriti spesso provocano una sinovite reattiva dolorosa ed un’osteolisi. Anche in questo caso la diagnosi non è facile se non in presenza di osteolisi radiograficamente evidente o di situazioni di metallosi chiaramente evidenti. La metallosi è provocata dal contatto metallo-metallo provocato o dall’usura completa del polietilene tibiale o più frequentemente dall’usura del polietilene rotuleo nei casi di protesi metal-backed. La metallosi causa un’osteolisi spesso devastante per la quale è necessario intervenire rapidamente.

Metallosis is the term used to describe the deposit and accumulation of metal debris found in the soft tissue surrounding a prosthesis. This is a complication that occurs when there is abrasion between the metallic components of the implant. This deposition of particles can result in pain, swelling or effusion, the formation of a mass or pseudo tumor, osteolysis, and other systemic effect related to metal hypersensitivity.
