A scientific team from a small innovative enterprise, Biomimetix, based at the National University of Science and Technology MISIS together with their colleagues from the N.N. Blokhin National Medical Research Centre of oncology developed a unique implant to replace damaged bone fragments. The implant, which imitates real bone structure, was tested on a domestic cat with osteosarcoma by surgeons at the veterinary clinic “Biocontrol.” According to postoperative observations, the implant fits well and the dynamics of recovery of the whiskered patient is positive.
