A porous calcium phosphate ceramic comprising a support portion having pores, and ring-shaped portions formed in the pores, the ring-shaped portions having pluralities of fine pores so that they have a network structure. A method for producing a porous calcium phosphate ceramic comprising stirring a slurry containing coarse calcium phosphate particles, fine calcium phosphate particles, a nonionic surfactant and a water-soluble high-molecular compound to foam the slurry; gelling the foamed slurry; and then drying the resultant get to obtain a sintered porous calcium phosphate ceramic; the nonionic surfactant being malamide and/or polyoxyethylene lauryl ether.
