French to English translations [PRO] Medical - Medical: Instruments / hip replacement surgery | | French term or phrase: Liseré péri prothétique | | I am afraid this material was given to me as a list of terms with virtually no context at all, except that it pertains to a hip replacement device, and it appears to be a list of indications of a problem. Is this periprosthetic lucency? I can't confirm it anywhere. |

Bilingual reference here: http://www.springerlink.com/content/r25107221q5t2664/
EN - Peri-acetabular radiolucent lines (RLLs) seen on early post-operative radiographs have been identified as a potential predictor of long-term implant performance.

Just substitute in "periprosthetic" or even "around the prosthesis"
