Abstract
Implant made of a biocompatible ceramic of synthetic origin obtained by additive manufacturing, wherein said implant has a material density by volume ranging from 20% to 100%; wherein said implant comprises cavities delimited at least partially by side walls defining cavity sections, said cavity sections each having an extension such that it is possible to fit each of said cavity sections in a circle having a diameter ranging from 0.3 mm to 1.2 mm; and wherein said side walls delimiting at least partially the cavities are defined by a triply periodic minimal surface.
