Estimating the term…
The present invention relates to a medical device manufactured using the additive manufacturing process (3D printing). It is a medical device used preferably as a bone graft composed of a porous structure based on bioceramics based on β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) or hydroxyapatite, which may or not contain nanostructures in its composition, for example: carbon nanostructures (graphene, graphene oxide, reduced graphene oxide, carbon nanotubes, etc.) and, in preferred embodiments, stem cells and polymeric membrane. Also, the present invention relates to the use of this device as a bone graft and the process of preparing this device.
