摘要
The ability to replace or augment diseased body parts totally or partially has improved both the quality and life span of human population. The decline in surgical risks during recent decades has encouraged the development of more complex procedures for prosthetic implantation. Additionally, a variety of extracorporeal devices. such as the heart, lung and blood dialysis machines are used routinely, but these prosthetic elements have several limitations. Hence, research projects are currently underway to overcome the limitations of synthetic materials by developing formulations with varying properties, such as asymptomatic. long-term function in the human physiological environment, etc., to meet the needs of biomedical surgeons. This review focuses on the several biomaterials corrosion and its measures to prevent corrosion.
