Article Synopsis
- Magnesium (Mg) is vital for bone health and has properties similar to human bone, making Mg-based alloys suitable for biodegradable osteosynthesis devices used in surgeries.
- A systematic review found that Mg-alloys have comparable efficacy and safety to titanium screws but can cause gas formation in carpal bones during degradation.
- The advantages of Mg-alloys include biocompatibility, biodegradability, and antibacterial properties, while their main limitation is their low mechanical strength, suggesting a need for innovative hybrid systems for high-load fractures and regenerative medicine applications.
