Abstract:
The authors have made an histological study of the evolution, after 120 days, of coral implant and tricalcic phosphate ceramic implant in each femur of 12 rabbits. The results have shown on the one hand that ceramic is resorbed faster than coral, on the other hand that for both types of biomaterials the resorption was much faster for the implants in contact with the bone-marrow than for those which were not.
