CA 2569982

The present invention relates in general to implantable flexible bone composites, and method for preparing the same. The flexible bone composite includes at least one polymeric layer and at least one calcium-containing layer. The polymeric layer can be a polymeric layer including a synthetic polymer. The calcium-containing layer can include a calcium compound such as .beta.-Ca3(PO4)2. The flexible bone composites of the invention are useful as bone void fillers and have improved handling characteristics.

La présente invention concerne, d'une façon générale, des composites osseux souples implantables, et un procédé d'élaboration correspondant. Ce composite osseux souple est constitué d'au moins une couche polymère et d'au moins une couche contenant du calcium. La couche polymère peut être une couche polymère incluant un polymère de synthèse. La couche contenant du calcium peut inclure un composé de calcium tel que le ?-Ca3(PO4)2. Les composite osseux souples de l'invention, qui conviennent pour combler les manques de matière osseuse, présentent des caractéristiques de manipulation améliorées.
