Abstract

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 with fibrin. (Copied from article).
