Infections associated with percutaneous osseointegrated titanium implants for limb prostheses
(2017-10-26)
Femoral amputation is a devastating event. Percutaneous, bone anchored
prosthetic systems reduce problems associated with socket suspended
prostheses, but the design is inherently vulnerable to infection. The aims of
this ...
Osteocytes as indicators of bone quality - multiscale structure-composition characterisation of the bone-implant interface
(2017-09-01)
By virtue of certain design features, bone anchored metal implants can be made to elicit a strong initial osteogenic response, i.e., the amount of bone formed. While quantitative differences are often lost at longer follow ...
The effect of tobacco exposure on bone healing and the osseointegrationof dental implants
(2017-05-17)
Background: The mechanisms behind the impact of smoking on
osseointegration are not fully understood. Aim: To correlate the clinical and
molecular aspects of osseointegration in smokers compared with non-smokers.
Methodology: ...
