Abstract
The invention proposes an antiseptic composition for use as bone cement, in particular an antiseptic polymethylmethacrylate bone cement, that can be cured and comprises a content of at least one component that is a compound with an oxidizing effect or from which a compound with an oxidizing effect can be released. Preferably, hydrogen peroxide is or can be released. In this context, it is particularly preferred to use an adduct or a salt of hydrogen peroxide that releases hydrogen peroxide in the presence of water or aqueous conditions. The antiseptic polymethylmethacrylate bone cement can be used for mechanical fixation of primary total articular endoprostheses, for mechanical fixation of revision total articular endoprostheses, and for producing spacers.
