The results confirm that the BG/Mg composite containing 10 wt% possesses the best mechanical and biological properties, which make it a promising material for bone fixation and tissue engineering.
Unless arthritis related research such as cartilage regeneration effectively delay and/or avoid the need for THR, or important breakthroughs substantially increase the lifespan of hip prosthesis and/or the material for prosthetic fixation, the demands for primary THR and the subsequent revision hip replacements will continue to grow.
Using detailed preoperative plans, physicians are able to select suitable materials for internal fixation before the surgery, thereby avoid repeated comparisons and steel plate shaping during the surgery, and reduce the surgical time.
Various osteosynthetic materials are used for fixation of the arthrodesis.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the mechanical feasibility of a hybrid Glass/Flax/Epoxy composite material for bone fracture fixation such as fracture plates.
The search for an ideal interference screw material for ACL graft fixation is still on-going.
PCL was chosen as the material for the internal fixation biofilm because PCL is a non-toxic biodegradable polyester, has a slow degradation rate, and demonstrates excellent mechanical strength and biocompatibility [ 30- 36].
CFR-PEEK is a better alternative for fixation rod material for spinal fusion compared to PEEK and Ti.
Not removing the fixation material for at least 8 months after surgery decreases refracture ratio [ 31] and refracture might be observed between 2 and 24 months after implant removal [ 30].
Insertion of this material in the fixation system customized for virtually planned orthognathic surgeries is an innovative technique.
Efficiency of DNA amplification from FFPE material also depends on the time period for fixation [ 4, 5].
