Three poly(L-lactides) with different molecular weights were synthesized as solid blocks from the melt. Two of those were ground and samples were produced by injection moulding. Specimens, cubes (2 x 3 x 3 mm) and rods (2 x 3 x 25 mm), were machined out of the samples, yielding the amorphous parts.

## 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 Biodegradation of hydroxyapatite (HA)/poly(L‐lactide)(PLLA) composite bone implant rods was studied with the use of two types of HA particles as reinforcing fillers: uncalcined HA (u‐HA) or calcined HA (c‐HA). Composite rods of u‐HA/PLLA and c‐HA/PLLA containing 30 or 40% (w/w) HA were
