Abstract

In the study the impact of manufacturing technology of alloy Ti6Al4V implants on the effectiveness of "fusion, treatment on the defined tissue biocompatibility and on the osseointegration with the bone” was analyzed. Models and samples made by material removal processing and electron beam technology EBT were tested in vitro biological and in vivo animals tests with histopathological assessment of tissues. The results confirmed the biocompatibility of the Ti6Al4V 3D-T alloy, and thus safety in bone surgery. On the basis of CTt examinations of preparates taken from animals after 3÷4M implantation it has been shown a very good osseointegration of truss structures with the bone. The introduction of EBT technology extends the capabilities of designing of a safe implant which is matched to the anatomy, exhibits complex spatial structure and surfaces that are conducive to the propagation of union/overgrowth of bone in accordance with the proposed hypothesis: Ivy-like mechanism.
