A Case Series of Percutaneous Treatment of Non-Union Fractures with Autologous, Culture Expanded, Bone Marrow Derived, Mesenchymal Stem Cells and Platelet Lysate

Abstract: Background: Current treatment options for stable non-union fractures represent major clinical challenges, and are a major health issue. Fracture treatment can take many forms, usually requiring bone grafting and/or revisions of the fracture with open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF). Conservative care options such as bone morphogenic proteins and bone stimulators are also available. The purpose of this study was to determine if culture expanded, autologous MSC's injected into non-union fractures under c-… Show more

“…Institutional Review Board oversight for the registry protocol was provided by a U.S. Office of Human Research Protections registered organization (#IRB00002637). Outcomes and efficacy of each procedure have been reported previously [2,8,13,16]. Prior to each procedure, physicians discussed risks, benefits, and alternatives to the procedure.…”

“…Because MSCs can differentiate into bone, cartilage, muscle, tendon, and ligament tissue and can use paracrine and other effects to elicit significant changes in injured tissues, their use for treating orthopaedic conditions holds significant promise [2][3][4][5]. In a clinical setting MSCs are typically harvested from bone marrow, then isolated and either re-injected or implanted in the same surgical procedure or culture expanded and then used clinically.…”

“…This may well create enough traumas to make a whole marrow scaffold. Then, the fibrous tissue interposed between the bones ends can be ossified and stop the micro-motion at the delayed or nonunion site in order to allow union of the gap (Centeno C.J., 2011). All of 10 patients in our series healed their fracture.…”

“…Two cases with an intramedullary nail at the femoral and tibial fracture were dynamized by removal of the distal locking screw. In two cases of tibial fracture, external device was removed and the fracture was stabilized by plaster cast (Centeno C.J., 2011). …”

“…A follow up was done for 4.5 years and all patients reported a decline in the pain intensity and interference. Another very small pilot study by Centeno and group [38], where culture expanded mesenchymal stem cells were used to treat non-union in 6 patients (4 females, 2 males), and the treatment intervention was at an average of 8.75 months post-fracture, all but one patient showed improvement. The patient who lacked healing had a chronic fracture that lasted for more than 40 years.…”
