“Polylactic acid-polyethylene glycol-hydroxyapatite composite” an efficient composition for interference screws
Interference screws are commonly used for the treatment of ruptured ligaments. The interference screws are often constructed from polylactic acid (PLA). In this study, a melt blend of PLA, polyethylene glycol (PEG) and hydroxyapatite (HA) was investigated for use in interference screws. For this pur...
