Experimental study of a 3D printed permanent implantable porous Ta-coated bone plate for fracture fixation

Metal plates have always been the gold standard in the clinic for internal fracture fixation due to their high strength advantages. However, high elastic modulus can cause stress shielding and lead to bone embrittlement. This study used an electron beam melting method to prepare personalized porous...
