## Abstract Barβshaped polymethylmethacrylate test specimens removed from rabbits after implantation for times up to 26 months showed a significant change in fracture stress as determined by threeβpoint bending in the period between 12 and 26 months. There were no adverse findings in the tissue whi

## Abstract Approximately a million bone grafts are performed each year in the United States, and this number is expected to increase rapidly as the population ages. Calcium phosphate cement (CPC) can intimately adapt to the bone cavity and harden to form resorbable hydroxyapatite with excellent os
## Abstract To aid in cement removal during revision arthroplasty, it has been proposed to add methylene blue to bone cement to provide contrast between the cement and bone. However, it is essential that the fatigue strength of the cement not be reduced by the addition of the methylene blue. The ef
Debonding of the cement-implant interface has been hypothesized to be the leading initial indicator of failed total hip prostheses. Many attempts have been made to increase the bond strength of this interface by precoating the implant, increasing the implant's surface roughness, and creating macro-g
It has been shown that preheating the femoral stem prior to insertion minimizes interfacial porosity at the stem-cement interface. In this study, the effects of methylmethacrylate monomer temperature prior to mixing on the properties of stem-cement interface and cement polymerization were evaluated
Previous studies showed that recombinant human growth of their cytotoxicity. The major fraction of the bioactivity was hormone (hGH) released from hormone-loaded poly(methyl-released from both of the PMMA cements during the first methacrylate) (PMMA) cement stimulated osteoid formation 24 h, but the
