Cardiovascular effects of methyl methacrylate monomer.
Although cardiorespiratory human sensitivity to circulating methyl methacrylate monomer remains unknown, it is clear that the blood levels responsible for cardiocirculatory alterations in intact dogs are not obtained after insertion of acrylic cement in long bones in clinical practice. Circulating monomer considered as the sole causal factor for the hemodynamic changes described during orthopedic method is highly questionable.
