| abstract |
The present invention relates to a bone cement precursor system that is presented in the form of two shelf-stable pastes which have been terminally sterilized and are held in separate containers during product transport and storage. When the product is used during surgery, these pastes inject to a site of application through a static mixing device by the action of applied injection force. When the two pastes are mixed, they start to react to each other while injecting out. The resulting composition is highly biocompatible, osteoconductive, injectable, rapid setting and bioresorbable, and is useful in connection with bone repair procedures, for example, in the craniomaxillof acial, trauma and orthopedic areas. |
