Rapid, symptomatic enlargement of a lumbar juxtafacet cyst: case report.

abstract：:Almost 20% of joint replacement implants fail at 15 to 20 years. Reports suggest that systemic effects of metal-on-metal implants and local effects of total joint arthroplasty implants contributing to implant failure are immune system based. Sometimes implant wear debris can cause implant failure resulting from bone f...
