Described is a medical device in the form of a thin sheet having granules of a calcium-containing, osteoconductive material interconnected by a thin web of polymeric material. The device includes a first face and a second face, wherein at least the first face is populated with proturbances presenting exposed regions of the calcium-containing, osteoconductive material provided by underlying granules. Methods of making and using such devices are also described, as are methods and devices involving the use of very thin polymeric sheets conformed to bone-ingrowth surfaces of load-bearing orthopedic implants.
