Abstract

See full text

The porous metal overlay for an implant surface is comprised of a plurality of layers of stacked metal grids. Each layer is provided with pores which are of a size which decrease in the direction of the implant surface steadily, that is, without enlargement in an intermediate layer. The progressively decreasing porous sizes provide for a steady ingrowth and nourishment of the ingrowing tissue.
