(author)The unprecedented properties of meta-biomaterials could pave the way for the development of life-lasting orthopedic implants. Here, we used non-auxetic meta-biomaterials to address the shortcomings of the current treatment options in acetabular revision surgery. Due to the severe bone deficiencies and poor bone quality, it can be very...journal article 2021

Kolken, H.M.A. (author), Lietaert, K. (author), van der Sloten, T. (author), Pouran, B. (author), Meynen, A. (author), Van Loock, G. (author), Weinans, Harrie (author), Scheys, L. (author), Zadpoor, A.A. (author)The innovative design of orthopedic implants could play an important role in the development of life-lasting implants, by improving both primary and secondary implant fixations. The concept of meta-biomaterials aims to achieve a unique combination of mechanical, mass transport, and biological properties through optimized topological design of...journal article 2020
