Prostheses restrained by immediate attachment while ingrowth proceeds naturally over time

摘要

The invention is a surgically implantable bone and bone joint prosthesis which is designed to be directly attached during surgery and which includes ingrowth receptive zones or stationing sites for delayed ingrowth adhesion naturally over time. The ingrowth receptive zones preferably emulate cancellous bone and are at locations on the body member corresponding generally to the area where connective tissue naturally attaches in vivo.
