[Light microscopic observation of bone interface of titanium-coated 317L plate screw].
The observational results of bone interface of titanium-coated 317L plate screw and 317L plate screw under light microscope are reported in the present paper. Osseointegration was formed in both kinds of screws after implanting. In the titanium-coated 317L plate screw group, the inflammatory reaction was slighter, the new bone formed earlier in the interface and the bone was combined with the metal tightly, whereas in the uncoated 317L plate screw group, the relationship between the bone and metal was only a state of contact. These indicate that the bone interface and tissue compatibility of titanium-coated 317L plate screw may be better than that of the 317L plate screw.
