CA 2679552

A bone cement is shown that includes a monomer, and a non-reactive substance that is fully miscible with the monomer. A resulting cured bone cement exhibits desirable properties such as modification in a stiffness of the material. Modified properties such a stiffness can be tailored to match bone properties and reduce an occurrence of fractures adjacent to a region repaired with bone cement. One example includes adjacent vertebral body fractures in vertebroplasty procedures.

La présente invention concerne un ciment osseux qui comprend un monomère, et une substance non réactive qui est complètement miscible avec le monomère. Un ciment osseux durci résultant présente des propriétés souhaitables telles qu'une modification de la raideur du matériau. On peut adapter les propriétés modifiées telles que la raideur afin d'égaler les propriétés de l'os et de réduire la survenue de fractures à proximité d'une région réparée avec du ciment osseux. Un exemple comprend les fractures du corps vertébral adjacent lors des procédures de vertébroplastie.
