A foot/ankle implant and associated method. The foot/ankle implant
comprises a composite structure having a ceramic component with a
macroprosity and a polymer component filling the macroporosity. The
composite structure forms an anatomically-shaped and load-bearing graft
for implantation between two bone portions of the foot or ankle to
correct associated deformities. The ceramic component is gradually
resorbable after implantation, and the composite structure is gradually
replaceable by tissue/bone ingrowth.
