The skeleton, one of the most complex organ systems in the human body, is a biological and technical wonder. It consists of more than 200 bones and has various types of cells, its own blood supply, its own lymphatic system and even its own skin. As a component of the apparatus of movement, the skeleton is the basis of our mobility. Any injury to it limits the capabilities and quality of life of the person involved.
During the evolutionary process, nature has given our skeleton a nearly perfect design. However, its present stage of development is not optimally designed for walking upright. As a result, during our lifetime we are particularly prone to joint damage, especially in knee and hip joints. In addition, degenerative bone diseases and above all accidents lead to skeletal damage requiring medical treatment.
In its product portfolio of innovative implants, aap • mebio specializes in the treatment of bone fractures and the replacement of defective joints, while biomaterials are designed to help bone fractures to heal.
