Abstract
What is described is a PMMA bone cement, containing at least one homopolymer or one copolymer having a glass transition temperature of more than 45° C., and at least one biocompatible elastomer that has a glass transition temperature of less than 37° C. and is soluble or insoluble in alkylmethacrylates and/or alkyldimethacrylates and/or alkyltrimethacrylates and/or alkyltetramethacrylates and has a residual monomer content of less than 5 percent. The PMMA bone cement is preferably used as self-curing plastic material for the fixation of primary total articular endoprostheses and revision total articular endoprostheses. Moreover, the PMMA bone cement can be used as self-curing filling material for vertebroplasty, kyphoplasty or femoral neck augmentation as well as for the production of temporary place-holders for two-stage revisions of total articular endoprostheses.
