Development of Acetabular Component for Endoprosthesis of Hip and Knee Joints

The acetabular component for an endoprosthesis of the hip and knee joints was developed based on hydroxyapatite and ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene. The results of the physicomechanical and tribological tests of the materials allowed the composition of the material to be optimized. Toxicological tests revealed biocompatibility of such materials. Neither toxic nor mutagenic effect was observed. Thus, the prosthesis composed of 50 mass % filler can be recommended.
