“…Application of tissue engineering technology in bone generation holds considerable potential to address the shortcomings of available bone nonunion treatment methodologies. , Due to its known osteogenic and mechanical properties, the iliac crest bone has consistently been the most popular candidate tissue for orthopedic bone repair procedures. ,, In the present study, we examined the clinical efficacy of the porous CPGA, as a substitute to the standard iliac crest bone autograft for scaphoid bone nonunion. Clinical outcomes were indicative of comparable healing effects of nonunion in the CPGA + cell therapy and control groups.…”

In this study, the procedure for treating the nonunion complication of scaphoid fractures using collagen/poly glycolic acid (CPGA) scaffolds with bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell (BM-MSC) therapy was adopted and compared with the commonly employed autologous bone tissue graft. With conducting a two-armed clinical trial, 10 patients with scaphoid nonunions were enrolled in this investigation. Patients were randomly assigned to two groups treated with (1) CPGA + cell therapy and (2) autologous iliac crest bone graft standard therapy. Treatment outcomes were evaluated three months after surgery, measuring the grip and pinch strengths and wrist range of motion, with two questionnaires: Patient-Rated Wrist Evaluation (PRWE) and Quick form of Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand (QDASH). We have also assessed the union rate using clinical and radiologic healing criteria one and three months post-operatively. Restorative effects of CPGA + cell therapy were similar to those of the autologous bone graft standard therapy, except for the grip strength (P = 0.048) and QDASH score (P = 0.044) changes, which were higher in the CPGA + cell therapy group. Three months following the surgery, radiographic images and computed tomography (CT) scans also demonstrated that the scaphoid union rate in the test group was comparable to that of scaphoids treated with the standard autograft method. Our findings demonstrate that the CPGA + cell therapy is a potential alternative for bone grafting in the treatment of bone nonunions.

“…Among the tissue engineering constructions for bone repair, the association of three-dimensional scaffolding is based on the attempt to mimic the native bone microstructure, facilitating the recruitment of osteogenic cells, in situ growth factors and promoting the synthesis of new mineralized bone matrix [ 6 , 7 ].…”

Tissue Bioengineering with Fibrin Scaffolds and Deproteinized Bone Matrix Associated or Not with the Transoperative Laser Photobiomodulation Protocol

Extending the range of use of the heterologous fibrin biopolymer, this pre-clinical study showed a new proportionality of its components directed to the formation of scaffold with a lower density of the resulting mesh to facilitate the infiltration of bone cells, and combined with therapy by laser photobiomodulation, in order to accelerate the repair process and decrease the morphofunctional recovery time. Thus, a transoperative protocol of laser photobiomodulation (L) was evaluated in critical bone defects filled with deproteinized bovine bone particles (P) associated with heterologous fibrin biopolymer (HF). The groups were: BCL (blood clot + laser); HF; HFL; PHF (P+HF); PHFL (P+HF+L). Microtomographically, bone volume (BV) at 14 days, was higher in the PHF and PHFL groups (10.45 ± 3.31 mm3 and 9.94 ± 1.51 mm3), significantly increasing in the BCL, HFL and PHFL groups. Histologically, in all experimental groups, the defects were not reestablished either in the external cortical bone or in the epidural, occurring only in partial bone repair. At 42 days, the bone area (BA) increased in all groups, being significantly higher in the laser-treated groups. The quantification of bone collagen fibers showed that the percentage of collagen fibers in the bone tissue was similar between the groups for each experimental period, but significantly higher at 42 days (35.71 ± 6.89%) compared to 14 days (18.94 ± 6.86%). It can be concluded that the results of the present study denote potential effects of laser radiation capable of inducing functional bone regeneration, through the synergistic combination of biomaterials and the new ratio of heterologous fibrin biopolymer components (1:1:1) was able to make the resulting fibrin mesh less dense and susceptible to cellular permeability. Thus, the best fibrinogen concentration should be evaluated to find the ideal heterologous fibrin scaffold.
