Comparison of biocompatibility and biodegradability of poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) combined with autologous fibrin versus PLGA for intra-articular screw fixation; an in- vivo study with New Zealand white rabbits- the microradiograph outcome

The great potential of biodegradable polymers in orthopaedic surgery is gradually being recognized. PLGA is one of the common polymers used. However, long term outcomes, with regards to PLGA, are still not well documented. Hence, we attempted to study the outcome of PLGA and also its combination...
