Porous polyethylene has been widely used for cranio-maxillofacial procedures due to its
highly stable, flexible and has been shown to exhibit rapid soft-tissue and bone ingrowth …

Medpor is a porous polyethylene biomaterial used in plastic and reconstructive surgery in
the craniofacial skeleton. Its porous nature allows for substantial vascular and soft-tissue …

High-density porous polyethylene (HDPP) has been extensively used in craniofacial
reconstructions with high-level success and minimal complications. It is known for its …

Purpose A new form of porous polyethylene, characterized by higher porosity and pore
interconnectivity, was developed for use as a tissue-integrated implant. This study evaluated …

The major objective of the current study was to examine the viscoelastic, dielectric, and
cytotoxic characteristics of porous polyethylene (PPE) as a hard tissue replacement material …

Background Porous polyethylene is considered the ideal material for the reconstruction or
augmentation of the craniomaxillofacial region. Methods A multicenter retrospective clinical …

Porous polyethylene (PPE) implants are biocompatible alloplastic materials commonly used
for facial augmentation. However, the effect of sub-periosteal PPE application on the …

Objectives The role of alloplastic materials in maxillofacial reconstruction is still
controversial. Determining the utility of porous, high-density, polyethylene implants as a …

Synthetic polymers are widely used in biomedical applications due to their advantages
compared to other materials including low cost and ease of processability, good corrosion …
