Synthetic bone substitutes are potentially the future gold standard in orthopaedic and traumatologic surgery. The availability of these bone substitutes with different biomechanical properties may well replace autografts in the future as they overcome comp ...
Despite total hip replacement (THR) gives generally satisfactory results, the quality of outcome in young patients is markedly decreased compared to the average THR outcome. For this population, pharmacological treatment with bisphosphonate would be benefi ...
Total Hip Replacement (THR) is today a routine procedure executed more than 800'000 times per year worldwide. THR gives generally satisfactory results, although the quality of outcome is inversely proportional to the age of the patient. In parallel, there ...
In order to decrease the peri-implant bone loss during the life-time of the implant, oral use of anti-osteoporosis drugs (like bisphosphonates) has been suggested. In this study, bone remodeling parameters identified from clinical trials of alendronate wer ...
Techniques allowing implant placement in extraction sockets require either high diameter implants in surgically enlarged sockets or grafting and/or regenerative procedures around implants after their primary surgical stabilization. This study aimed to eval ...
Motivated by applications in orthopaedic surgery, new constitutive laws for trabecular (or spongious) bone are developed in the framework of continuum mechanics, implemented in a mechanical analysis computer program, validated by a number of in vitro exper ...
