Earle D. Bude. The Use of Metal in Bone Surgery. I. Am. M. Ass., v. III; № 27. XII—1938
Magnesium alloys containing 95.7% magnesium, 4% aluminum, and 0.3% manganese can be successfully used in bone surgery as fastening screws and nails. This alloy fixes bone fragments well during the period of callus formation and then gradually dissolves completely and in a shorter time than some other materials usually used for this purpose. The release of gas during oxidation and resorption of the alloy is not a contraindication. The gas quickly disappears and does not cause trouble.
