Abstract

Bone stabilization with bone plates is a very common orthopedic procedure. Due to the occurrence of complex fractures, fractures resulting from osteoporosis and allergic reactions, solutions in the form of traditional bone plates are not sufficient. Therefore, the use of composite materials is increasingly proposed for such fractures. The aim of this study was to obtain the appropriate mechanical properties of the proposed glass fiber-reinforced PLA-based composite using 3D technology. In order to verify the mechanical properties, the samples were subjected to a strength analysis using the tensile test and the three-point bend test. The research has shown the possibility of using reinforcements in 3D printing, the use of means to accelerate the rehabilitation of the patient after bone fusion surgery.
