Embodiment Construction

[0017] 1A and 1B show that the implant 1 can be realized, for example, by means of a bone splint. It comprises a basic complex 2 made of standard absorbable synthetic materials such as polylactides, their copolymers, polyglycolides, their copolymers, polydioxanone (polydioxanone), proteins such as casein or collagen, tricalcium phosphate and similar substances. It is also possible to produce basic composites only partly from absorbable material, eg a hernia mesh, half of which consists of polypropylene (non-absorbable) and half of which consists of absorbable material.

[0018] The side 3 of the basic composite 2 facing upwards in FIGS. 1A and 1B has a continuous coating 4 of a titanium-containing material. For example, the side 3 of the bone splint implant 1 with the coating 4 is placed in the environment of the implant in such a way that it faces the bone to be fixed, and there, since the titanium surface is highly biocompatible, the above-mentioned The growth of bone cell...

Abstract

An absorbable implant comprises a basic compound made of a material which can be absorbed by the body of the implant recipient. A coating which contains titanium partially covers the basic compound, so that the latter comprises coating-free zones for the body to engage and absorb.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to absorbable medical elements suitable for in vivo use, in particular absorbable implants, comprising a basic composite made of a material which is absorbable in the body of the recipient of the implant. The possible forms of these medical elements can be used in all suitable medical applications, such as screws and plates for bone fixation, suture materials, suture clips, bone replacement granules, stents, soft tissue reinforcement implants, e.g. for anchoring Hernia meshes for implants, clips, anchors and pegs, membrane systems for dentistry, tubes for replacement called "nerve tracks", or matrices for tissue engineering. For clarification, these medical elements are collectively referred to below as "implants". Background technique [0002] The background of the invention is the use of absorbable synthetic substances in many areas of implant surgery where temporary fixation of any type of tissue such as soft tissue or...
