Mechanochemically reprogrammed porous tantalum with synergistic antibacterial and osteogenic properties for the treatment of infectious bone defects

Abstract Infection and poor osseointegration following orthopedic implantation remain significant challenges that can lead to complications, including prosthesis loosening, delayed fracture healing, and even implant failure. Porous tantalum is a game changer in the field of bone implants. In this st...
