%X Se realiz車 ensayo cl赤nico el cual incluy車 a 10 pacientes con lesiones cervicales bajas (C3/7), traum芍ticas o degenerativas y que requirieron implantes para sustituir discos intervertebrales, y en los que se utilizaron l芍minas de hidroxiapatita de 3 y 6 mm de espesor y porosidad de 50 %, de fabricaci車n nacional. En 9 casos se obtuvo estabilidad y osteoconducci車n adecuadas, evaluadas por medio de controles cl赤nicos y radiol車gicos. Se verific車 en nuestro medio, la eficacia de la hidroxiapatita como implante para lograr la fusi車n intersom芍tica vertebral, como sustituta eficiente de los injertos 車seos aut車genos, al evitar sus complicaciones habituales. Se recomienda su empleo y la fabricaci車n de implantes de hidroxiapatita de configuraci車n y dimensiones m芍s espec赤ficas It was conducted a clinical assay of 10 patients with cervical low (C3/7), traumatic or degenerative injuries that required implants to substitute intervertebral disks. Hydroxyapatite laminae 3-6 mm thick with a porosity of 50% made in Cuba were used. Adequate stability and osteoconduction were attained in 9 cases that were evaluated by clinical and radiological controls. The efficiency of hydroxyapatite as an implant to achieve the intersomatic vertebral fusion, and as an efficient substitute of the autogenous bone grafts, was verified in our environment, on preventing its habitual complications. It is recommended its use and the making of hydroxyapatite implants of more specific configuration and dimensions
