| Résumé : | Cones currently available in the market are rigid, and unless they are custom-specific designed, are unable to correctly adapt to the shape of the patient's bone. Therefore, flexible metaphyseal cones have been recently introduced to reduce potential bone trauma during implantation. Even if a preliminary clinical study on their use has shown promising results, no biomechanical study evaluates and quantifies their mechanical efficacy and safety. |
