Abstract
Throughout history there have been attempts to alleviate joint pain by various means. With Industrial Revolution and the development of modern medicine, surgery was seen as a means to relieve joint pain. The first endoprosthetic surgery was performed in Germany in 1890 using ivory. Since then, the materials and manufacturing technologies for joint replacements have evolved drastically, and this advancement continues to accelerate. This paper traces the evolution of endoprosthetic materials, from early 19th-century experiments with ivory and glass to modern orthopedic innovations using stainless steel, titanium, and other advanced materials. The main aim of this paper is to examine the historical development of biomaterials used in endoprosthetic manufacturing and explores emerging trends in this field.
