<p>An improved bone cement is comprised of a particulate biocompatible calcium phosphate ceramic and particulate resorbable calcium salt dispersed in a cross-linked biodegradable polyester matrix. The polymer/salt-particle composite exhibits good biomechanical strength/modulus characteristics with surgically acceptable cure times. When used for sustained release of biologically active agents in a physiological environment, controlled release of biological agents that are mixed into the composite can be achieved as the cement biodegrades. When used for bone/implant fixation, or as a filler or cement, composite permits, under suitable circumstances , eventual replacement of the cement with developing bone tissue.</p> |
