Core Tip Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) cements provide reliable fixation of the implants in joint arthro¬plasty. Fast-setting high viscosity PMMA cements exist that have altered setting characteristics compared to standard setting cements. These potentially offer benefits to surgeons based upon their handling properties. Such cements have gained popularity in arthroplasty surgery as described in the United Kingdom and Australian National Joint Registries. The use of fast-setting cements has various beneficial as well as economic effects, such as time-saving and better antibiotic elution.
