Abstract
An intervertebral implant, particularly an intervertebral implant comprising local degradable hydroxyl apatite/metal block and based on a support mounting model of porous hydroxyl apatite with metal powders held for sintering and molding, guides osseous tissues to grow in porous metal and is steadily merged in upper and lower bones when the implanted hydroxyl apatite is gradually degraded in a certain period.
