Abstract

A composite of $Ca_3$(PO$_4$)$_2$ and MgAl$_2$O$_4$ spinel is biologically active and has enduring strength. Its strength depends on the spinel phase. The flaws in the spinel depend on the grain size of the calcium phosphate phase and are not altered by dissolution. The calcium phosphate, ${\alpha}$ tri-calcium phosphate, controls the tissue response. Bone bonds to the implant. A design for a bone graft as a replacement for a section of the diaphysis of a canine femur provides for tensile, compressive, torsional and bending load; and for the physiological processes of bonding and remodeling. A bone plate, used to stabilize the implant at time of surgery was removed after about one year. Over seven years of service have been achieved without internal or external fixation.
