In Vitro and In Vivo Response to Low-Modulus PMMA-Based Bone Cement

In Vitro and In Vivo Response to Low-Modulus PMMA-Based Bone Cement

The high stiffness of acrylic bone cements has been hypothesized to contribute to the increased number of fractures encountered after vertebroplasty, which has led to the development of low-modulus cements. However, there is no data available on the in vivo biocompatibility of any low-modulus cement...
