Pyrophosphate‐Containing Calcium Phosphates Negatively Impact Heterotopic Bone Quality
The role of calcium pyrophosphate (Ca‐PP) in heterotopic bone formation and material degradation is investigated using calcium phosphate (CaP) compositions with varying Ca‐PP content. Results show that Ca‐PP does not impede heterotopic bone formation, minimally affects CaP degradation at non‐osseous sites, and increases phagocytosis.
