  • REPAIR OF CALCANEUS AND SKIN DEFECTS WITH ALLOGRAFT AND SURAL NEUROVASCULAR FLAP

    Objective To investigate the clinical results of allograft and sural neurovascular flap in repairing calcaneus and skin defects.Methods From February 1996 to December 2002, allograft and sural neurovascular flap were used to repair calcaneusand skin defects in 6 cases. The causes included road accident in 3 cases, strangulation in 2 cases and crashing object in 1 case. The defect locations were at theback of the calcaneus( 1/3, 1/2 and 2/3 of calcaneus in 3 cases, 2 cases and 1case respectively). The flap area ranged from 6 cm×7 cm to 12 cm×17 cm. Results The flaps survived completely in 4 cases; the distal flaps necrosed partly in 2 cases and the wound healed by dressing. The postoperative X-ray films showed that the repaired bone and joint had normal position and the arcus plantaris recovered. After a follow upof 6 months to 3 years all the patients were achieved bone union in allograft and had no complications of absorption, infection and repulsion. The weightbearing and walking functions were restored and the injured foot obtained a satisfactory contour. After 36 months of operation, the sensory recovery of foot occurred. Conclusion The used-allograft iseasy to be obtained and arcus plantaris is easy to recover. The reversesural neurovascular- flap in repairing calcaneus and skin defects has the following advantages: the maintenance of blood supply for injured foot, the less dangerous operation, the simple procedure, the recovery of walking function, and the good appearance and sensation.

  • STUDY ON THE APPLICATION OF ALLOGENEIC BONE TRANSPLANTATION

    Objective To explore the clinical application of allogeneic bone transplantation. Methods Related literatures on clinical application of various allograft bone materials of the past 5 years were extensively reviewed. Results The allografts could be processed into various kinds of transplanting materials, such as small blocks, large segments, morselised or granular material, and bone ring, so that they could be applied to bone defect filling, prosthesis revision, limb preservation after tumor resection, and joint fusion. All these applications ended up with good clinical results. However, complications resulted in thestructural transplantation of large block bones could be overlooked. Conclusion The main advantage of bone allograft is that it can be integrated with host bone and be remodelled, so as to reconstruct bone structure and function. How to accelerate their integration and remodelling while exerting normal functions is the problem that requires solution.

  • LYOPHILIZED SMALLSEGMENT ALLOGENEIC BONE IN REPAIRING BONE DEFECT DUE TO BENIGNBONE TUMOR AND TUMOR-LIKE LESIONS AFTER RESECTION AND CURETTAGE

    Objective To investigate the clinical application and complicationof the lyophilized small-segment allogeneic bone used in repairing bone defectscaused by benign bone tumor and tumor-like lesions after resection and curettage. Methods From December 1999 to December 2005, 230 patients (156 males, 74 females; age, 5-56years, averaged 32.8 years), who had bone defects caused by benign bone tumors and tumor-like lesions after surgical resection and curettage, were treated by the lyophilized small-segment allogeneic bones. The cavities left by the tumor curettage ranged in size from 1.0 cm×0.8 cm to 10.0 cm×2.0 cm, andthe bone defects were about 1.0 to 3.5 cm in diameter after the localized resection of the bones. According to the bone defect degrees, the autogenous nonvascular iliac bone and the bone allograft (0.5-30.0 g) were implanted, followed by the drainage for 2-3 days and the use of antibiotics to prevent infection. The postoperative systemic and local reactions were observed, and the regular X-ray examinations were performed to observe the bone union. ResultsThere was no significant difference in the allergic reactions, such as postoperative temperature, drained amount, and body swelling, between this kind of transplantation and the autogenous bonetransplantation. The wounds in 196 patients were healed by the first intension.The wounds in 34 patients had extravasate. Among them, the wound was healed by changing dressing in 30cases; the wound had delayed healing in 4, including 3 whose wounds were healedby changing dressing for 3-4 weeks,and 1 whose wound was healed by taking out the implants. The follow-up for 6-60 months (average, 38 months) revealed that all the patients had the allograft unions of the bones within 6-18 months after the transplantation, and only 6patients had recurrence of the tumor (3.0%). Evaluated by the Mankin,Komender and WANG Zhiqiang’s standards, 196 (85.22%) patients were satisfied with their outcomes while the other 34 (14.78%) patients were not satisfied. Conclusion The lyophilized small-segment allogeneic bone has a good compatibility and osteogenesis, when it is used in repairing bone defects caused by benign bone tumor and tumor-like lesions after resection and curettage. So, this kind of bone is a good, convenient and safe material for the bone transplantation. The important factors affecting the allograft union are as follows: the mechanical stability in the recipient region, local blood supply, and management of the bone cavity left by resection and curettage of the bone tumor.

    Objective To evaluate the cl inical results of allogeneic bone graft for interbody fusion in cervical tuberculosis. Methods Between January 2000 and January 2008, 30 cases of cervical tuberculosis were treated with allogeneic (group A, n=15) or autologous (group B, n=15) il iac crest bone graft combined with anterior fixation after radical debridement. In group A, there were 8 males and 7 females with an average age of 38 years; the disease duration was 6 to 14 months; the preoperative kyphosis Cobb angle was (8.6 ± 11.3)°; the preoperative Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) score was 13.0 ± 3.1 for neurological function; and the length of bone graft was 32 mm on average. In group B, there were 9males and 6 females with an average age of 42 years; the disease duration was 4 to 17 months; the preoperative kyphosis Cobb angle was (4.9 ± 7.4)°; the preoperative JOA score 12.3 ± 4.2; and the length of bone graft was 34 mm on average. There was no significant difference in general data between 2 groups (P gt; 0.05). Results The operation time and bleeding volume in group A were significantly less than those in group B (P lt; 0.05). Wound effusion were found in 2 cases of group A, and the other incisions healed by first intention. No infection occurred in group B. In group A, 13 cases were followed up 12-48 months; in group B, 14 cases were followed up 13-46 months. The time of bone graft heal ing in group A [(7.6 ± 2.1) months] was significantly longer than that in group B [(4.2 ± 1.1) months] (t=2.773, P=0.005). The kyphosis Cobb angles were significantly improved at 6 months and last follow-up after operation in 2 groups when compared with that before operation (P lt; 0.05), but no significant difference was found between 2 groups at different time after operation (P gt; 0.05). There was no significant difference in JOA score at 6 months after operation between group A (14.1 ± 2.6) and group B (14.3 ± 2.4) (t=1.655, P=0.162). The improvement rate for neural function were 83.7% in group A and 87.8% in group B, showing no significant difference (χ2=3.150, P=0.071). There was no loosening of internal fixation and recurrence of tuberculosis in 2 groups during follow-up. Five cases had chronic pain at il iac donor sites in group B. According to Bridwell et al. evaluation standard, the bone fusion was satisfactory in 11 cases (84.6%) and unsatisfactory in 2 cases (15.4%) in group A, and was satisfactory for all in 14 cases (100%) in group B. The satisfactory rate of bone fusion showed no significant difference between 2 groups (χ2=2.680, P=0.115).Conclusion Allogeneic bone grafting has a good cl inical result for spinal fusion in cervical tuberculosis surgery, which can treat tuberculosis bone defect effectively.

  • EXPERIMENTAL STUDY OF BONE REPAIR INDUCED BY CRYOPRESERVED ALLOGRAFT PERIOSTEUM AND FETAL BONE COMPOSITION IN BONE DEFECT

    OBJECTIVE: To investigate the repairing effect of transplantation of allogeneic fetal bone in combination with a covering cryopreserved periosteal allograft to bone defect. METHODS: Twenty Long-eared white male rabbits were chosen as experimental model of bilateral 12 mm combined bony and periosteal radial defect. Cryopreserved allograft periosteum with allogeneic fetal bone were implanted in the left defect as experimental side and fetal bone was simply transplanted in the right defect as control side. Bone repair process in the two groups were compared by macroscopy, microscopy, roentgenograms and the contents of calcium and phosphate in the defect area at 2, 4, 8 and 12 weeks after transplantation. RESULTS: There was significant statistic difference in the contents of calcium and phosphate between the experimental and control sides at 4, 8 and 12 weeks after transplantation (P lt; 0.05). With time passing by, the contents of calcium and phosphate have the increasing trends. In the experimental group, lamella bone was seen and medullary canal recanalized at 8 weeks postoperatively. The histological section showed the bone lacuna and lamella bone were formed. CONCLUSION: It suggests that allogeneic fetal bone in combination with a covering cryopreserved periosteal allograft can promote bone repair, and allogeneic fetal bone is excellent bone substitute.

  • ENHANCING EFFECT OF TISSUE ENGINEERED BONE ON BONE DEFECT REPAIR IN RATS

    Objective To evaluate the effects of composite bone in strategy of tissue engineering on bone defect repair in rats. Methods Sixteen matured Wistar rats (male or female, weighing 250-300 g) were used to prepare platelet lysate (PL). PL/allogeneic decalcified bone granules (ADBG)/Col I (PAC) and ADBG/Col I (AC) were prepared by mixing Col Igel ADBG with or without PL. BMSCs of 8 Wistar rats (male or female, weighing 250-300 g) were isolated and cultured. The 5th passage of BMSCs were co-cultured with PAC at the density of 1 × 106 cells/mL to fabricate the tissue engineered composite PACB in vitro. Forty healthy Wistar rats were made bilateral bone defects in femoral condyles and divided into 4 groups (A, B, C and D, n=10). The defects were filled with equivalent PACB, PAC, AC and Col I in groups A, B, C and D respectively. At 4 weeks, the defect repair was evaluated with radiology, histology, ALP biochemical tests. Results At 4 weeks, the bone density measurement was (7.31 ± 0.54), (4.36 ± 0.67), (2.12 ± 0.47), and (1.09 ± 0.55) pixels in groups A, B, C, and D, respectively. The area of new bone formation in defect area under single view was (412.82 ± 22.31), (266.57 ± 17.22), (94.34 ± 20.22), and (26.12 ± 12.51) pixels in groups A, B, C and D respectively. The ALP contents in femoral condyles were (94.31 ± 7.54), (69.88 ± 4.12), (41.33 ± 3.46), and (21.03 ± 3.11) U/L, respectively. The above indexes of group A were significantly higher than those of groups B, C or D (P lt; 0.05). Three-color flow cytometry assay showed that the T lymphocyte subsets of CD3+CD4+CD8-, CD3+CD8+CD4-, and the ratio of CD4/CD8 displayed no significant difference among four groups (P gt; 0.05). Conclusion Tissue engineered bone PACB is capable to promote the bone defect repair.
