0425 - Biomechanical Properties of Taxol-loaded Bone Cement
INTRODUCTION: Skeletal metastases frequently occur in patients suffering from breast cancer, the spine being the most common site. An improved survival rate of breast cancer has led to a rise in the incidence of skeletal metastases, resulting in serious morbidity (e.g. collapsed vertebrae) and a marked decrease in quality of life. The management of spinal metastatic lesions currently involves i...
متن کاملAcrylic antibiotic-loaded bone cement: a basic study
Abstract Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of antibiotic-loaded bone cement in controlling local infection and in regard to its physical characteristics, elastic modulus, and tensile strength in-vitro. Methods: Acrylic bone cement, based on polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) was mixed with the powder form of three antibiotics, i.e., gentamicin, tobramycin, and...
متن کاملAllergic Reaction Following Insertion of Vancomycin Loaded in Bone Cement
Vancomycin bead is an important ancillary treatment for osteomyelitis caused by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). However, red-man syndrome, which can be a life-threatening complication of vancomycin, may occur from the use of vancomycin beads albeit rarely. We report our first case of red-man syndrome caused by vancomycin bead's insertion for chronic osteomyelitis. Symptomati...
متن کاملProsthetic abutment influences bone biomechanical behavior of immediately loaded implants.
This study aimed to evaluate the influence of the type of prosthetic abutment associated to different implant connection on bone biomechanical behavior of immediately and delayed loaded implants. Computed tomography-based finite element models comprising a mandible with a single molar implant were created with different types of prosthetic abutment (UCLA or conical), implant connection (externa...
متن کاملFracture properties of an acrylic bone cement.
This study investigated experimentally the fracture properties, i.e., the fatigue strength, the resistance to crack propagation and the fracture toughness, of an acrylic bone cement (Cemex RX). The mean endurance limit was determined following the staircase method. The endurance limit was estimated at 9.2 MPa. The fatigue crack propagation rate was measured according to the ASTM E647 standard. ...
