Title:
MEDICAL IMPLANTS, PROSTHESES, PROSTHESIS PARTS, MEDICAL INSTRUMENTS, DEVICES AND AUXILIARY CONTRIVANCES MADE OF A HALOGENIDE-MODIFIED MAGNESIUM SUBSTANCE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2003055537
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The use of a magnesium substance, whose corrosiveness is altered as a result of modification with halogenides, enables medical implants, prostheses or prosthesis parts and medical instruments, devices and auxiliary contrivances, especially surgical instruments or tools, for use in and on the human or animal body to be produced, whereby the degree of corrosion-resistance thereof can be adjusted to full corrosion-resistance.
