Abstract

On the basis of the analysis of home and foreign experience, the author discusses the certain most actual problems of total joint replacement and the ways of their solution, i.e. search of new sufficiently strong and, in the same time, biologically inert materials for the production of joint implants; modification of the implant components surface in order to ensure their maximum biological compatibility and optimum conditions for the bone tissue ingrowth; improvement of the tribologic characteristics of the friction couple in the mobility unit; elaboration of bone cement. High social and economic significance of joint replacement is emphasized.
