abstract = "Polylactide (PLA) or polylactic acid is a biodegradable and biocompatible biomaterial obtained from lactic acid, extracted from sugar cane or corn starch. Due to its biocompatibility, after application, it will cause a minimal reaction of the organism, and by virtue of its biodegradability, it will facilitate postoperative recovery because there is no need for its removal. It is often in combination with other compounds to fulfill the requirement about properties which implant need to have. In this review, this will be described in which areas of medicine apply this biomaterial and in which forms. We will see that this material can be made various implants such as surgical sutures, tiles, screws, coatings, capsules and tissue matrices and that this application is especially important in surgical branches of medicine.",
