Nieder et al.12 found a 20% rate of deep infection in the 76 cases that he performed for failed arthroplasty (not tumors) with the Mark I model. ª They saw upward migration in ALL cases although the migration soon stabilized and was referred to as 'bedding in' ª Sclerosis at interface is common, and that if no sclerosis is noted then there is usually greater migration ª Deep infection caused significant migration ª Heterotopic bone around prosthesis is common and may or may not be of clinical significance1,3,6,11 Cephalad Migration Notice the cephalad migration and heterotopic bone formation over a 4-year period in this patient12
