  • Patent number: 6436136
    Abstract: Implants are disclosed for use in humans having a rigidity comparable to human bone comprising polyurethane with hydrolysable ester linkages which are spaced apart to provide hydrolysis fragments which are sufficiently small to be resorbed in the human body, the polyurethane comprising a network polymer which is substantially free of urea groups. Methods for the production of such implants are also disclosed.
