Local and systemic inflammation after implantation of a novel iron based porous degradable bone replacement material in sheep model
Abstract Despite the high potential of healthy bone to regenerate, the reconstruction of large bone defects remains a challenge. Due to the lack of mechanical stability of existing bone substitutes, recently developed degradable metallic alloys are an interesting alternative providing higher load-be...
