3D printed porous magnesium scaffolds show potential as bone-substituting material

Researchers from the Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands have discovered 3D printed biodegradable magnesium scaffolds could have promising applications in the regeneration of critical-sized bone defects. While the approach isn’t without its limitations, the researchers believe the solvent-cast 3D printed (SC-3DP) method used has ‘unprecedented possibilities’ for the fabrication of magnesium-based porous scaffolds.
