Orthopedic Bone Cements

  • Chapter
Biomechanics and Biomaterials in Orthopedics

Abstract

The word “cement” comes from the domain of architecture construction. It consists of a system of powder/liquid materials which, when mixed to a paste, set to a hard mass. “Bone cement” uses this system for application in medicine, for example: filling of bone defects and fixation of surgical prostheses, etc.
