Abstract:
A poly(D,L-lactic acid) surface coating (PDLLA) has been developed to optimize interactions at the implant-tissue interface. Mechanical and allergological characteristics were evaluated in the present study to elucidate possible indications and limitations prior to clinical application. Implants of stainless steel and Ti-6Al-4V and Co-Cr-Mo alloys were coated with PDLLA, and mechanical stability was studied during intramedullary implantation into rat and human cadaver bones and during dilation o...     »
