A Polymethyl Methacrylate Bone Cement With Reduced Stress Concentration
PMMA/PLA/CNT composite bone cement with reduced stress concentration. ABSTRACT Polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) bone cement is the earliest and most widely used in clinical applications. However, PMMA bone cement has high hardness and high modulus, which leads to secondary fracture of adjacent vertebrae. In this study, a PMMA/polylactic acid (PLA)/carbon

Vertebro-/Kyphoplasty History, Development, Results [PDF]
Many investigations prove the significant analgetic effect of vertebral augmentation. The reasons for the decrease in pain are found in the stabilization of fracture fragments as well as the toxic-thermic effect of polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA), used in ...

Experimental results demonstrate that both solid bone cement blocks and bone cement in a dispersed state within bone tissue can be screwed in after thermal softening of the bone cement through Kirschner wires, achieving a good pull‐out resistance. ABSTRACT Objective Vertebroplasty with non‐degradable polymethyl methacrylate bone cement is a common ...
