In surgical disciplines where bone has to be repaired, augmented or improved, bone substitutes are essential. Although bone banks, such as Eurotransplant, are founded to supply such substitutes, natural bone is not always adequate. For example, frequently these so-called bone grafts resorb after implantation (1). Further, they cannot be used for joint and tooth replacement, and recently worries have been raised about the transfer of infectious diseases. Therefore, interest has dramatically increased in the use of synthetic materials for replacement of lost or damaged bone tissue. The generic name of these tissue alternatives is biomaterials. A special class of these biomaterials is composed of metallic devices with coatings to improve bone bonding. These specialized coatings used to improve the metallic implant are the topic of this paper.

BCP are considered the most promising biomaterials for bone reconstruction. This study aims at analyzing the outcomes of patients who received BCP as bone substitutes in orthopaedic surgeries. Sixty-six patients were categorized according to the etiology and morphology of the bone defects and received scores after clinical and radiographic evaluations. The final results corresponded to the combination of both parameters and varied from 5 (excellent result) to 2 or lower (poor result). Most of the patients who presented cavitary defects or bone losses due to prosthesis placement or revision, osteotomies, or arthrodesis showed good results, and some of them excellent results. However, patients with segmental defects equal or larger than 3 cm in length were classified as moderate results. This study established clinical parameters where the BCP alone can successfully support the osteogenic process and where the association with other tissue engineering strategies may be considered.
