Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion with Polyether ether Ketone Cage

open access: yesGlobal Spine Journal, 2014
Introduction The use of polyether ether ketone (PEEK) cage prosthetic devices in anterior cervical discectomy with fusion (ACDF) has increased rapidly. The authors present preliminary outcomes data on the PEEK cage.

Carbon fibre/polyether ether ketone (CF/PEEK) implants in orthopaedic oncology

open access: yesWorld Journal of Surgical Oncology, 2018
Background Radiation therapy is an important therapeutic element in musculoskeletal tumours, especially when encountering multiple or painful lesions. In osteolytic lesions, a surgical stabilization with implants is often required.

All‐inside meniscal repair using polyether ether ketone versus all‐suture anchors: No difference in failure rates at three‐follow‐up in a retrospective cohort of 2253 patients

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To compare mid‐term failure rates of next‐generation all‐inside meniscal repair using polyether ether ketone (PEEK) anchors versus all‐suture anchors in a large patient cohort. The null hypothesis was that there would be no difference in failure rates between PEEK and all‐suture anchors.

Impact of tear morphology and meniscal laterality on repair failure in stable knees: Medial repairs show over twofold risk

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To evaluate the failure rates of all‐inside meniscal repair based on tear morphology in stable knees (i.e., without concomitant anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction [ACLR]) and to assess the influence of failure. Methods This retrospective cohort study included 1008 patients who underwent arthroscopic all‐inside meniscal repair ...

Enhancing the Performance of 3D‐Printed Polyamide Composites Through Pre‐ and Post‐Processing Methods

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
FDM‐printed polyamide composites and post‐processing by annealing. ABSTRACT In this study, composite filaments with a short carbon fiber (CF) reinforced polyamide 612 (PA612) were produced using the FDM method at three different raster angles (0°, ±45°, 90°).

Rotator Cuff Repair With a Sutureless PEEK Implant

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques
Rotator cuff tears are one of the most common tendon injuries. Despite advancements in rotator cuff repair techniques, outcomes remain variable. We describe repair of small rotator cuff tears with a sutureless PEEK (polyether ether ketone) implant, which

Diverse reactivity of maleimides in polymer science and beyond

open access: yesPolymer International, Volume 74, Issue 4, Page 296-306, April 2025.
This mini‐review provides a thorough overview of maleimide chemistry, highlighting its diverse reactivity in polymer and materials science applications. Abstract Maleimides are remarkably versatile functional groups, capable of participating in homo‐ and copolymerizations, Diels–Alder and (photo)cycloadditions, Michael additions, and other reactions ...
