3D Biomimetic Porous Titanium (Ti<sub>6</sub>Al<sub>4</sub>V ELI) Scaffolds for Large Bone Critical Defect Reconstruction: An Experimental Study in Sheep

The main goal in the treatment of large bone defects is to guarantee a rapid loading of the affected limb. In this paper, the authors proposed a new reconstructive technique that proved to be suitable to reach this purpose through the use of a custom-made biomimetic porous titanium scaffold. An in v...
