The ideal bearing combination for total hip arthroplasty (THA) remains debatable. Highly cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) is widely used, but long-term wear rates are not fully known, nor is how much the initial "creep," if any, affects overall wear. Additionally, the use of oxidized zirconium (OxZir) is purported to lower polyethylene wear rates, but this has not been proven. #link# We present the 10-year data of a cohort of patients who underwent THA. Patients were prospectively randomized to 1 of 4 bearing combinations a con
