## Abstract The increasing clinical use of biodegradable implants in orthopedic surgery makes it necessary to determine their long‐term behavior in tissues. In this study, a biodegradable screw made of poly‐L‐lactide (PLLA) was inserted axially into the right distal femur in 18 rabbits. The degrada

## Abstract Long term __in vivo__ degradation, and tissue response to, cylindrical elastomers made of photo‐cross‐linked star‐poly(ε‐caprolactone‐__co__‐D,L‐lactide) triacrylate were investigated through subcutaneous implantation in rats. The elastomers were prepared via UV initiated crosslinking o
