The Mechanical Performance of Solid and Porous Bone Cement

  • Chapter
Biomechanics: Principles and Applications

Part of the book series: Developments in Biomechanics ((DEBI,volume 1))

Abstract

In an attempt to overcome some of the shortcoming of bone cement a porous bone cement was developed at our laboratories (1). In several previous studies we reported about the evaluation of this cement (2–6).
