  • BIORESORBABLE POROUS METALS FOR ORTHOPAEDIC APPLICATIONS
    Publication number: 20210145586
    Abstract: Methods of producing bioresorbable porous biocomposites for orthopaedic applications are provided. In an exemplary embodiment of a resorbable orthopaedic implant of the present disclosure, the implant comprises a porous alloy of at least a first metal and a second metal sintered together, the alloy configured to resorb into a body at substantially an atomic level without flaking off, wherein a porosity of the implant is defined by a first plurality of interconnected holes having a first range of sizes.
    Type: Application
