The trabecular bone occurs, for example, in the femoral heads. Understanding the phenomenon of bone tissue degeneration can be the basis for the possibility of looking for alternative methods of surgical treatment of bone loss. The paper presents the results of the trabecular bone model, which was produced in additive manufacturing method with fused filament fabrication technology. The verification of the mechanical behavior of the trabecular bone model was based on the analysis of uniaxial compression test. The model was also conditioned under degradation process to determine the influence of the physiological fluid environment due to changes in the mechanical response of the modeled bone. The obtained results showed that the mechanical strength of the proposed spongy bone model and the method of its production allow to obtain strength values close to the natural spongy bone. In addition, the strength did not change during the 4-week degradation process.
