Abstract:

Biostable and bioabsorbable biomaterials are used to manufacture implants for supporting, replacement, augmentation and guiding of growth of tissues. Bioabsorbable implants are a better choice for applications where only the temporary presence of the implant is needed. Because of bioabsorption of such implants, there is no need for a removal operation after healing of the tissue and the risks of implant related, long-term complications are eliminated or strongly reduced. Reinforcing of bioabsorbable materials is necessary in order to develop strong and safe, small implants for fixation of bone

Abstract:

Bioabsorbable implants have become the focus of the latest research for new bone implant materials. With favorable characteristics such as compatible mechanical characteristics, no long-term side effects, and even osteogenesis enhancing properties they seem to be the future of osteosynthesis. Besides these characteristics, they must perform on the same level as traditional implant materials regarding their mechanical support for bone healing. A particular focus in the research for bioabsorbable implants has been on metal alloys, as these have particularly good mechanical properties such as exc

The use of bioabsorbable implants in spine surgery is expanding at a rapid pace.

Abstract:

Bioabsorbable implants can be advantageous for certain surgical tissue bioengineering applications and implant-assisted tissue repair. They offer the obvious benefits of nonpermanence and eventual restoration of the native tissue’s biomechanical and immunological properties, while providing a structural scaffold for healing and a route for additional therapies (i.e., drug elution). They present unique developmental, imaging, and histopathological challenges in the conduct of preclinical animal studies and in interpretation of pathology data.

Abstract:

Osteosynthesis in fracture treatment typically uses hardware that remains in the patient’s body, which brings a permanent risk of negative side effects such as foreign body reactions or chronic inflammation. Bioabsorbable materials, however, can degrade and slowly be replaced by autologous bone tissue. A suitable material is requested to offer great biocompatibility alongside excellent mechanical properties and a reasonable corrosion rate. Zinc–silver alloys provide these characteristics, which makes them a promising candidate for research. This study investigated the aptitude as a bioabsorbab

This study evaluated the mid-term (12-month) biomechanical, biocompatibility, and biological performance of additive-manufactured bioabsorbable iron-based interference screws (ISs). Two bioabsorbable iron IS types—manufactured using pure iron powder (iron_IS) and using pure iron powder with 0.2 wt% tricalcium phosphate (TCP_IS)—were compared with conventional metallic IS (control) using in vitro biocompatibility and degradation analyses and an in vivo animal study. The in vitro ultimate failure strength was significantly higher for iron_IS and TCP_IS than for control ISs at 3 months post-opera

Abstract:

In orthopedics, bone fixation imposes the use of implants in almost all cases. Over time, the materials used for the implant have evolved from inert materials to those that mimic the morphology of the bone. Therefore, bioabsorbable, biocompatible, and bioactive materials have emerged. Our study aimed to review the main types of implant materials used in orthopedics and present their advantages and drawbacks. We have searched for the pros and cons of the various types of material in the literature from over the last twenty years. The studied data show that consecrated metal alloys, still widely

Abstract:

Absorbable metallic implants have been under investigation for more than a century. Animal and human studies have shown that magnesium (Mg) alloys can be safely used in bioresorbable scaffolds. Several cardiovascular and orthopedic biodegradable metallic devices have recently been approved for use in humans. Bioresorbable Mg implants present many advantages when compared to bioabsorbable polymer or nonabsorbable metallic implants, including similar strength and mechanical properties as existing implant-grade metals without the drawbacks of permanence or need for implant removal.

Abstract:

Background: Osteochondral lesions (OCLs) of the knee, whether occurring secondary to osteochondritis dissecans or a traumatic osteochondral fracture, are commonly encountered in the pediatric and adolescent population. Given the potential for healing in this population, coupled with adequate surgical reduction and stability of OCL fixation, an opportunity exists to avoid a major restorative procedure and the associated substantial costs and potential morbidity. Purpose: To analyze the outcomes of bioabsorbable fixation of OCLs in the adolescent knee at a minimum of 2 years. Study Design: Case

Abstract:

Screw fixation is an established method for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction, although with a high rate of implant-related complications. An allograft system for implant fixation in ACL reconstruction, the Shark Screw ACL (surgebright GmbH) could overcome some of the shortcomings of bioabsorbable screws, such as foreign body reaction, need for implant removal and imaging artefacts. However, it needs to provide sufficient mechanical stability. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the biomechanical stability, especially graft slippage, of the novel allograft system

Abstract:

Background: Fixation of tendon transfers with a bioabsorbable interference-fit screw has several advantages over other fixation methods: decreased dissection, operative time, and blood loss; preservation of tendon length; no interference with radiographic studies; no need for implant removal; and no barrier to revision surgery. Whether strength of fixation is affected by the size of the pilot hole has not been established. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of pilot hole size on the pullout strength of a flexor digitorum longus (FDL) tendon secured into a bone analog using a

Abstract:

Bioabsorbable fixation devices have been used in craniomaxillofacial (CMF) surgery since the early 70's. In our departments the experimental use started in the 80's with self‐reinforced (SR) polylactide devices. The first clinical operations were carried out in 1991. Since that time, we have used different types of self‐reinforced bioabsorbable devices in the fixation of several hundreds of osteotomies and fractures. Patients' acceptance has been generally excellent and very few complications occurred during this follow‐up of over 10 years. The complications have been minor and have not affect

Abstract:

Object Although it improves rates of fusion in surgical arthrodesis, conventional spinal instrumentation is associated with several risks, including hardware extrusion that injures adjacent anatomical structures, and disuse osteopenia as a result of stress shielding. The long-term effects of indwelling spinal instrumentation, although incompletely documented, may be detrimental. One way to avoid such problems would be to use bioabsorbable implantation devices. In this pilot study, performed in 1998 and 1999, the authors evaluated the use of a bioabsorbable interbody fusion device in a goat cer

89 Background: Most women in New Zealand undergo partial mastectomy (PM) and 6 weeks of whole breast irradiation for early breast cancer. Oncoplastic surgery (OPS) is common, however, reconstruction of the breast during partial mastectomy presents challenges for radiation targeting since tissues have been extensively rearranged. Further complicating matters, the seroma cavity is often absent, and many patients travel to different cities for radiation without much communication between the surgeon and radiation oncologist prior to treatment. Throughout the country there is interest in promoting

Abstract:

The traumatic and non-traumatic osteochondral lesions of the knee can be surgically repaired with osteochondral fragment fixation, and bioabsorbable materials have been facing a strong increase in their use for this purpose in recent years. They have specific biomechanical and biological behavior after implantation, which depict normal and abnormal imaging findings on follow-up diagnostic imaging. This article will discuss these and other imaging findings, important to predict implant failure leading to poor evolution and associated complications.
