Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is a common procedure that has become increasingly prevalent in a younger patient population. With improvements in prostheses and materials, the survivorship of implants has increased. Historically, the excellent wear characteristics of ceramic-on-ceramic (CoC) implants made them an appealing choice compared to other bearing options. Yet, the potential benefits of the bearing longevity related to the wear characteristics have been combated by their unique causes of failure such as implant fracture and squeaking. Metal-backed ceramic liners were developed to minimize impingement-related chipping at the periphery of the implant that may propagate to catastrophic implant fracture. We report a case involving a fracture of a metal-backed ceramic liner that presented with months of pain and crepitus with no overt signs of fracture on imaging.
