Abstract

The major problems of implanted percutaneous devices include biocompatibility and infection. Experience with 127 implants in 43 patients and volunteers of Rancho Los Amigos Hospital is presented and shows that if mechanical forces are reduced to a minimum, prolonged success of these implants can be expected.
