Various treatment options are available, although often the acetabular defect cannot be corrected with a single option alone. Precise assessment of the bone loss and a suitable combination of methods are needed. Here we report a case of multiple failures with impaction bone grafting reconstruction for an acetabular bone defect of American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons classification type III. We finally reconstructed the acetabulum with three femoral head allografts and a Kerboull-type acetabular reinforcement device. The allograft was a casted, jet-type helmet-like shape. A year later the patient was able to walk without a cane and perform light agricultural work. Accurate evaluation of the acetabular bone loss and appropriate reconstruction is important.展开更多

The purpose of this study was to assess the efficacy and safety of human amniotic allograft applied to allogeneic tri-cortical grafts in Evans calcaneal osteotomy. Methods: The medical records of patients who had Evans calcaneal osteotomy with implantation of tri-cortical iliac crest bone graft with human anmiotic allograft for surgical management of adult acquired flatfoot deformity with 2 years follow-up data were reviewed. Results: A total of 63 patients (mean age: 33.3 yr, range: 18 - 66 yr) were enrolled with adult acquired flatfoot deformity. Median time to weight-bearing was 6 weeks. Time to wearing normal shoes was 10 weeks, and time to radiographic healing was 16 weeks. Conclusions: The use of human amniotic allograft did not diminish the long term outcome of procedure or the short term benchmarks for healing after surgery. There were no nonunion, wound dehiscence, infection, or allergic or immune reaction reported. This retrospective study demonstrated that tri-cortical iliac crest bone graft and HAA could be safely used in Evans calcaneal osteotomy with favorable results.展开更多

Fusion is the most common technique in spine surgery and is used to treat morbidities and relieve discomfort. Allograft and autograft bone substitutes are currently the most commonly used bone grafts to promote fusion. These approaches pose limitations and present complications to the patient. Numerous alternative bone graft substitutes are on the market or have been developed and proposed for application. These options have attempted to promote spine fusion by enhancing osteogenic properties. In this review, we reviewed biology of spine fusion and the current advances in biomedical materials and biological strategies for application in surgical spine fusion. Our findings illustrate that, while many bone graft substitutes perform well as bone graft extenders, only osteoinductive proteins(recombinant bone morphogenetic proteins-2 and osteogenic protein-1) provide evidence for use as both bone enhancers and bone substitutes for specific types of spinal fusion. Tissue engineered hydrogels, synthetic polymer composites and viral based gene therapy also holds the potential to be used for spine fusion in future, though warrants further investigation to be used in clinical practice.展开更多

Demineralized bone matrix(DBM) is an allograft product with no quantity limitation. It is an osteoconductive material with osteoinductive capabilities, which vary among different products, depending on donor characteristics and differences in processing of the bone. The purpose of the present review is to provide a critical review of the existing literature concerning the use of DBM products in various procedures in the extremities. Clinical studies describing the use of DBM alone or in combination with other grafting material are available for only a few commercial products. The Level of Evidence of these studies and the resulting Grades of Recommendation are very low. In conclusion, further clinical studies of higher quality are required in order to improve the Recommendation Grades for or against the use of DBM products in bone grafting procedures.展开更多

The search terms were ＂impaction bone grafting＂, ＂particle size＂, ＂mechanical property＂and ＂biological behavior＂.Study selection Articles relevant to the choices of allografts and their results for bone defect reconstruction on the acetabular side were selected.Results Different choices of allografts, including the particle size, process of irradiation or fat reduction, composition and particle grade, are made to improve the survival rate of a prosthesis in acetabular revision surgery. This review,which compares both mechanical and biological factors, summarizes the experimental and clinical results for different techniques.Conclusions Fresh frozen cancellous allografts with particle sizes ranging from 7 to 10 mm are a favorable choice for reconstruction of bone defects of American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons （AAOS） types Ⅱ （cavitary defect） and Ⅲ（combined cavitary and segmental defect） on the acetabular side. A fat-reducing procedure with saline or solvent/detergent is controversial. Adding autologous marrow into irradiated allografts, which provides reliable mechanical stability and biological safety, may be a substitute for fresh frozen allografts. Cortical bone can be a supplementary material in cases of insufficiency of cancellous allografts. Cartilage should be excluded from the graft material. Further research is required to demonstrate the best particle grade, and randomized controlled trials in clinical practice are required to obtain more information about the selection of allografts.展开更多

A new approach including gene-modified bone marrow stromal cells （BMSCs） in combination with impaction bone grafting may effectively restore bone stock and improve allograft incorporation. This study aimed to investigate the effect of impaction on gene-modified BMSCs seeded on granular bone allografts in vitro and in vivo.Methods Deep-frozen, granular, cancellous bone allografts from canines were prepared to serve as cell delivery scaffolds and were seeded with green fluorescent protein （GFP） genetically-modified BMSCs to construct cell-allograft composites. The composites were impacted in a simulative, in vitro impaction model and cultured for further analysis under standard conditions. Four Beagle dogs, treated with bilateral, uncemented proximal tibial joint hemiarthroplasty with a prosthesis, were implanted with autologous GFP gene-modified cell-allograft composites to repair the bone cavity around each prosthesis.Results A significant reduction in cell viability was observed after impaction by fluorescence microscopy in vitro.However, there remained a proportion of GFP-positive cells that were viable and functionally active, as evidenced by the secretion of GFP protein in vitro and in vivo.Conclusions Gene-modified BMSCs seeded on granular allografts were able to withstand the impaction forces and to maintain their normal functions in vitro and in vivo, in spite of a partial loss in cell viability.展开更多
