“…Zur radiologischen Einschätzung der Plattenlage in situ sind röntgendichte Tantalfäden in das Implantat integriert. Biomechanische Testungen zeigen eine Materialfestigkeit von PEEK-Implantaten, welche vergleichbar mit herkömmlichen Metallimplantaten ist [24]. Die Besonderheit der karbonfaserverstärkten PEEK-Implantate besteht in der hohen Festigkeit bei einem niedrigen Elastizitätsmodul, welcher größe-re Ähnlichkeit zur biologischen Kortikalis aufweist als der von Metallimplantaten.…”

Polyether ether ketone (PEEK) possesses excellent mechanical properties similar to those of human bone and is considered the best alternative material other than titanium for orthopedic spine and trauma implants. However, the deficient osteogenic properties and the bioinertness of PEEK limit its fields of application. The aim of this study was to limit these drawbacks by coating the surface of PEEK with nano-scaled hydroxyapatite (HA) minerals. In the study, the biological response to PEEK, with and without HA coating, was investigated. Twenty-four screw-like and apically perforated implants in the rabbit femur were histologically evaluated at 3 weeks and 12 weeks after surgery. Twelve of the 24 implants were HA coated (test), and the remaining 12 served as uncoated PEEK controls. At 3 weeks and 12 weeks, the mean bone–implant contact was higher for test compared to control ( P <0.05). The bone area inside the threads was comparable in the two groups, but the perforating hole showed more bone area for the HA-coated implants at both healing points ( P <0.01). With these results, we conclude that nano-sized HA coating on PEEK implants significantly improved the osteogenic properties, and in a clinical situation this material composition may serve as an implant where a rapid bone fusion is essential.

Carbon fiber (CF) consists of a multitude of unique physical, chemical and biological characteristics that can be utilized and exploited for a number of diverse applications. Found in aerospace systems, structural elements, energy storage and other products, the most recent application of CF has expanded into the realm of surgical implants. The material properties of CF, historical development and applications and methods of manufacturing are illustrated upon. The various surgical applications of CF are defined, from biocompatibility within the human body and wound healing products to numerous surgical implantations. Keywords: carbon fiber; orthopedics; historical review
