Download or read book Bone Transplantation written by Max Aebi and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 561 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the result of an international symposium on bone transplantation, the first of its kind, held in Berne, Switzerland, on May 14-16, 1987. This symposium brought together some of the most outstanding experts - from all over the world, principally from North America and Europe -in the clinical bone transplantation and in basic research. It was an unique opportunity to summarize in a few days the state of the art in this field and to bring clinicians who carry out some research related to their work together with basic scientists. The clinician can on the one hand profit from the basis researcher's knowledge and on the other stimulate the researcher to share the orthopedic surgeon's interest in osteo articular allografts. The book, like the symposium, contains two types of contributions: 1. Papers from invited experts who have often dedicated a significant part of their professional life to the subject of bone transplantation. Knowledge which would otherwise be scattered among original papers from many different sources, some of it less firmly established and therefore less well known, is thus collected together in one volume, so that the reader does not have to weed out a mass ofless important material. These chapters may for a certain time act as a textbook on bone transplantation, but inevitably will eventually be superseded by new findings. 2. Descriptions of current research in all the main subjects covered in the state of-the-art papers.
Download or read book Clinical Applications Of Bone Allografts And Substitutes Biology And Clinical Applications written by Glyn O Phillips and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2005-07-21 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although bone allografts were first utilized by McEwen in orthopaedic surgery in 1881, progress since then has been sporadic. With the growth of tissue banks and the greater availability of safe and sterile bone grafts, the pace has now quickened; in 2004, more than one million such grafts were used in the USA alone. However, the practice generally remained a “cottage industry” well into the latter part of the 20th century. This volume provides an international expert evaluaton of the current use of bone, bone substitutes and related allografts, and describes up-to-date practices and clinical results in particular procedures. It will provide a ready reference for readers wishing to carry out an initial survey of the subject.
Download or read book Orthopaedic Allograft Surgery written by Andrei A. Czitrom and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 467 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is the work product of an international group of authors who are experienced in the field of musculoskeletal allografts. The chapters are written by experts in many differing areas of allografting and represents the current knowledge in this rapidly changing dynamic field. The reconstructive community and their patients owe a significant debt of gratitude to Doctors Czitrom and Winkler for this volume. William F. Enneking, M. D. Preface What follows is the result of a timely project bringing together the newest ideas of top experts worldwide in a rapidly growing technology: Orthopaedic Allograft Surgery. The title of the book reflects a method rather than a speciality. It transgresses well established subspecialities of orthopaedic surgery such as joint replacement, oncology, spine, trauma and sports medicine. The technology encompasses knowledge of tissue banking, biology and biomechanics, both in a research and clinical sense. The common denominator for those interested is the need and ability to provide or use allogeneic tissues in orthopaedic applications. Inherent to a multiauthored text based on chapters written by authors from many parts of the world is a variety in format and style. While we tried to some extent reducing large discrepancies, there was no attempt made to eliminate dissimilar ities. We did not aim for a homogeneous textbook. Rather, we asked for originality, novelty, individuality in the presentation of data and concepts. Consequently, chapters vary in format from that seen in a scientific article to that of a descriptive essay.

Download or read book Cartilage Defect Repair by Osteochondral Allografts written by Andrea L. Pallante and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Articular cartilage exhibits limited intrinsic healing, and when defects are left untreated, they can increase in size and cartilage degeneration may progress to end-stage joint failure. Osteochondral allografting has been widely used in the clinic to treat large or multiple focal defects, or as a salvage procedure to avoid total joint replacement, and aims to restore mature, hyaline cartilage in a biologically, structurally, and functionally appropriate manner. Repair outcomes may be influenced by the presence of viable chondrocytes within graft cartilage and the integration of the graft bone to surrounding host tissue. Thus, the overall motivation of this dissertation work was to develop an integrative and multi-scale approach to cartilage defect repair analysis by osteochondral allografts in order to expand the current understanding of in vivo cartilage and bone remodeling. A novel approach for analyzing in vivo cartilage defect repair by osteochondral allografts was developed using interdisciplinary and multi-scale analysis methods in the goat model. Maintenance of cartilage load-bearing function in allografts in vivo was associated with zonal maintenance of cartilage cellularity and matrix content. Reduced cellularity at the articular surface, resulting from 4°C storage, was associated with variable long-term outcomes, while allograft failure was accompanied with cartilage softening, loss of cells/matrix, and/or graft subsidence. Production of the lubricant, proteoglycan-4 (PRG4), from allografts was a useful marker of biological performance. 37°C storage supports long-term chondrocyte viability, especially at the vulnerable articular surface. Bone structure in allografts was altered in vivo compared to non-operated bone, with allografts displaying bone cysts, and bone surface channels with or without roughening at the bone-cartilage interface. This work has further elucidated the interrelationship between biological and structural aspects of cartilage and bone remodeling in vivo after osteochondral allografting. Such analysis has established the inferiority of 4°C stored allografts versus fresh allografts, identified potential biomarkers of allograft performance and alternative storage protocols, and provided insight into the pathogenesis of subchondral bone cysts during cartilage defect repair. Analyzing cartilage and bone biology, structure, and function in an integrative manner identified properties of the osteochondral tissue that are critical to repair efficacy and potential mechanisms of graft success/failure.

Download or read book Bone Grafting written by Raja Kummoona and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2018-12-19 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This valuable book presents clinical experiences and research of bone grafting. Bone grafting is an essential technique practiced by craniofacial, maxillofacial, orthopedic, neuro, reconstructive and oral surgeons. Bone grafting can be used for reconstruction and restoring missing bone in trauma and tumor surgery of the facial bone or in road traffic accidents with multiple injuries and in post-traumatic missile war injuries to the face or limbs. Bone grafts, in the form of Kummoona Chondro-Ossous graft or Costo-Chondral graft, are used for reconstruction of damage TMJ for restoration of growth, function, and repair. Bone grafting is a surgical procedure where the iliac crest or rib or tibia is used to perform grafting. In this book, we examine the experimental studies on rabbits to understand the cellular changes associated with bone grafting. From this, we noticed that mesenchymal stem cells and growth factor are released from platelets and these play an important role in healing the bone graft. We recommend this valuable book to all cranio-maxillofacial, orthopedic, plastic, reconstructive, neuro and oral surgeons and to all postgraduate students studying bone grafting.
Download or read book Cartilage Properties After Allogeneic Transplantation of Cryopreserved Osteochondral Plugs and Cartilage bone Paste grafts written by and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Articular cartilage has a limited capacity to heal due to the avascular nature of the tissue. A lesion that traverses the full thickness of cartilage and penetrates the subchondral bone plate will have access to subchondral blood flow. Blood-borne inflammatory mediators trigger a repair response that culminates in fibrocartilage repair tissue that may fill the lesion site. Unfortunately, fibrocartilage cannot withstand the physiologic load-bearing required of articular cartilage and begins to degenerate within a year. The aim of this research was to determine if transplantation of allogenic tissues could result in repair tissue that was more similar to native articular cartilage than to fibrocartilage. The first study, performed in 5 sheep, compared the transplantation of cryopreserved osteochondral allografts to fresh autografts (a clinically established technique) at one year after transplantation. The second study, performed in 40 rabbits, evaluated repair tissue properties 6 months after allogeneic cartilage and bone paste-graft implantation. In both studies, repair tissue was evaluated by the following techniques: macroscopic and histologic appearance, cartilage firmness, and chondrocyte viability. Viability was quantified through digital analysis of confocal microscopy images. In addition, sulfate-uptake analysis, an indicator of cartilage metabolism, was performed in the cryopreserved osteochondral allograft study. At one year, cryopreserved osteochondral allografts performed better when transplanted into load-bearing sites compared to those in non-load-bearing areas. Load bearing grafts demonstrated macroscopic appearance, cartilage firmness, cell metabolism and viability similar to fresh osteochondral autografts and adjacent articular cartilage. Paste-graft tissue, evaluated at six months, was significantly inferior to intact articular cartilage, but superior to fibrocartilage repair tissue. Paste-graft properties were not affected by load-bearing site, the ratio of cartilage to bone within the paste-graft mixture, or by the use of fibrin sealant as an adhesive. While osteochondral allograft provided functional restoration of the articular surface, both repair techniques resulted in repair tissue that was inferior to native articular cartilage. However, both techniques demonstrated improvements in the quality of repair tissue compared to previous studies.
