Fully or Partially Bioresorbable Orthopedic Implant
Abstract:
A fully or partially bioresorbable orthopedic implant to provide support along a load-bearing axis and a method for producing the same. The implant may include an implant body and a reinforcement material, where the reinforcement material is integrated into the implant body and oriented to provide support along one or more load-bearing axes. The reinforcement material may include a rate of bioresorption that is less than a rate of bioresorption associated with the implant body. In this manner, the fully or partially bioresorbable orthopedic implant of the present invention may facilitate bone ingrowth while providing increased mechanical strength, increased load-bearing capacity, increased bone ingrowth, and decreased propensity for fracture.
