Development and Testing of X-Ray Imaging-Enhanced Poly-L-Lactide Bone Screws. [PDF]
Nanosized iron oxide particles exhibit osteogenic and radiopaque properties. Thus, iron oxide (Fe3O4) nanoparticles were incorporated into a biodegradable polymer (poly-L-lactic acid, PLLA) to fabricate a composite bone screw.

Comparison of the bone response to xenogenic bone screws and metallic screws in canine femur [PDF]
The study compared the bone response to xenogenic screws and metallic screws of a similar design in a canine femur. The xenogenic bone screws and metallic bone screws were inserted into the femur diaphyses of dogs. Radiological and histological responses to the xenogenic bone screws were determined in canine bone and micro-computed tomography ...

Are continuous locking headless bone screws with locking plate fixation effective for bridging fracture gaps in far cortical locking constructs? An in vitro biomechanical and finite element study under simplified axial loading. [PDF]
IntroductionLocking screws typically provide more stable fixation than conventional cortical screws. However, the rigid connection between the locking screw head and plate hole can cause stress concentrations and lead to early failure under cyclic ...
