Abstract
Bone cement is a crucial material to treat bone metastases defects, and can fill the bone defect and provide mechanical support simultaneously, but the antitumor effect is very limited. Magnetic bone cement not only supports bone metastasis defects but can also achieve magnetic hyperthermia to eliminate tumor cells around the bone defect. However, the physicochemical properties of the bone cement matrix will change if the weight ratio of the magnetic nanoparticles in the cement is too high. We mixed 1 weight percent Zn0.3Fe2.7O4 with good biocompatibility and high heating efficiency into a polymethyl methacrylate matrix to prepare magnetic bone cement, which minimized the affection for physicochemical properties and satisfied the hyperthermia requirement of the alternating magnetic field.
