摘要:
An artificial acetabulum having a multilayer shell-core composite structure includes a ceramic acetabular liner, a transition layer and an acetabular shell. The acetabular shell is made of a porous metal, a porous alloy or a porous toughened ceramic; the ceramic acetabular liner is made of a ceramic material; and the transition layer is made of a composite material comprising materials of the acetabular shell and the ceramic acetabular liner. The artificial acetabulum is manufactured through sintering a green body of successively stacked layers of the ceramic acetabular liner, the transition layer and the acetabular shell, and the green body of successively stacked layers is obtained through a powder co-injection molding process. The ceramic acetabular liner of the artificial acetabulum has a high rigidness, corrosion-proof and wear-proof performance. The acetabular shell of the artificial acetabulum has a high toughness and shock resistant performance.

A femoral prosthesis may be formed as a femoral component incorporating a base material and an articulating material. In one exemplary embodiment, the base material is a metal and the articulating material is a polymer. Specifically, the base material provides strength and rigidity to the femoral component, while the articulating material contacts a tibial prosthesis or natural tibia during joint articulation. In one exemplary embodiment, the articulating material forms the articulating surface of one or more condyle portions of the femoral component.

摘要:
A bioceramic endoprosthesis includes a reservoir or deposition of a bioactive substance, such as an angiogenic growth factor, that can provide a biological function, such as vascularization of the endoprosthesis. Such a bioceramic can be prepared by a low temperature direct rapid prototyping inkjet printing system and process. Such a direct inkjet printing process includes the following: applying a ceramic powder to a substrate; inkjet printing a binder solution onto the ceramic powder so as to form a bound ceramic; inkjet printing a bioactive substance solution onto the bound ceramic, wherein the bioactive substance is printed on the bound ceramic at the low temperature (e.g., room temperature or within +/−10° C. of 25° C.); and repeating the process in order to form the bioceramic endoprosthesis.

摘要:
A method for forming a three-dimensional, biocompatible, porous scaffold structure using a solid freeform fabrication technique (referred to herein as robocasting) that can be used as a medical implant into a living organism, such as a human or other mammal. Imaging technology and analysis is first used to determine the three-dimensional design required for the medical implant, such as a bone implant or graft, fashioned as a three-dimensional, biocompatible scaffold structure. The robocasting technique is used to either directly produce the three-dimensional, porous scaffold structure or to produce an over-sized three-dimensional, porous scaffold lattice which can be machined to produce the designed three-dimensional, porous scaffold structure for implantation.
