The landscape of orthopaedics and trauma is rapidly evolving, driven by groundbreaking advancements in biomaterials. This book offers an in-depth exploration of the current state-of-the-art, highlighting the latest innovations and their clinical applications.
The intersection of materials science and medicine has given rise to a revolutionary field: biomaterials. These engineered substances, designed to interact with biological systems, have become indispensable in orthopaedics and trauma surgery. From repairing broken bones to replacing worn-out joints, biomaterials have significantly advanced patient care and quality of life.
In recent years, the focus has shifted towards bioactive and biodegradable materials. Bioactive materials, such as calcium phosphate ceramics, actively interact with bone tissue, promoting bone growth and integration. This characteristic is particularly valuable in bone grafts and tissue engineering applications. On the other hand, biodegradable materials, like polylactic acid (PLA) and polyglycolic acid (PGA), offer the advantage of being gradually absorbed by the body as the surrounding tissue regenerates. These materials are employed in various forms, including screws, plates, and bone scaffolds.
This book offers a holistic view of biomaterials in orthopaedics and trauma by presenting an understanding of the fundamental properties of biomaterials and exploring their role in tissue regeneration and implant design. This comprehensive resource also delves into the future, examining emerging trends and technologies that are revolutionizing patient care and paving the way for new treatment modalities. This book is an essential guide to the exciting world of biomaterials for orthopaedic surgeons, trauma surgeons and biomedical researchers.

Dr. Prof. Raju Vaishya is a distinguished orthopedic surgeon and joint replacement specialist with over 38 years of experience and is recognized as one of the leading figures in India. Dr. Vaishya's impressive educational background includes an MBBS degree (Gold Medalist), MS (Orth), MCh (Orth), FRCS (London), and FACS (USA). He actively contributes to the academic sphere, holding positions like member of the Specialist Board for Orthopedics and Distinguished Clinical Tutor at Apollo Hospitals Educational and Research Foundation. Dr. Vaishya's illustrious career is marked by numerous accolades. He holds several prestigious awards, including the Dr. B.C. Roy Award and recognitions for academic excellence. He has achieved world records (documented in Limca and India Book of Records) for performing bilateral total knee replacements on the oldest patients (individuals and couples). Additionally, he has been featured in the Asia Book of Records for his prolific research output during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Dr Sourabh Ghosh is a Professor at Department of Textile and Fibre Engineering, Indian Institute of Technology Delhi, India. He is the head of Regenerative Engineering laboratory. His research focuses on the interface between fundamental and applied research, by combining the principles of Textile Technology and Tissue Engineering, using silk and collagen proteins, bioprinting and establishment of in vitro disease models. His research elucidated that the role of type of cell utilized (chondrocytes or stem cells), the chondrogenic culture conditions (growth factors/biochemical mediators) and the culture microenvironment during chondrogenesis have a direct correlation with the dysregulated activity of the chondrogenic signaling pathways corroborating the onset of hypertrophic maturation of chondrocytes.
