Periosteal BMP2 activity drives bone graft healing [PDF]

open access: yesBone, 2012
Bone graft incorporation depends on the orchestrated activation of numerous growth factors and cytokines in both the host and the graft. Prominent in this signaling cascade is BMP2.

Impact of bone graft harvesting techniques on bone formation and graft resorption: a histomorphometric study in the mandibles of minipigs [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Oral Implants Research, 2015
BACKGROUND: Harvesting techniques can affect cellular parameters of autogenous bone grafts in vitro. Whether these differences translate to in vivo bone formation, however, remains unknown. OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to assess the impact

Bone Grafts

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Small Animal Practice, 1999
Bone grafting provides a method of enhancing bone healing in veterinary orthopedic patients. Specifically, autogenous cancellous bone graft provides the cellular components and matrix proteins that can accelerate bone healing, dramatically. Allografts provide immediate mechanical support for fracture repair and patient function, but these grafts do not

BONE-GRAFTING AND BONE-GRAFT SUBSTITUTES

The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery-American Volume, 2002
The treatment of delayed unions, malunions, and nonunions requires restoration of alignment, stable fixation, and in many cases adjunctive measures such as bone-grafting or use of bone-graft substitutes.Bone-graft materials usually have one or more components: an osteoconductive matrix, which ...

Bone graft viability in vascularized bone graft transfer

The British Journal of Radiology, 1982
Five cases of vascularized bone grafts were analysed to determine viability using angiography 6-8 weeks after surgery and radionuclide bone imaging 8-10 weeks after surgery. The results were comparable to each other and to clinical progress. Both examinations were considered useful in assessment of these cases.

Bone Grafting

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Small Animal Practice, 1987
Bone grafts in clinical practice are primarily used to help achieve bony union in cases of indolent healing of fractures or pseudoarthrosis; to supplement the healing of certain fresh fractures; to promote fusion (arthrodesis) of joints damaged by injury, disease, or deformity, and to fill defects in bone created by tumors, chronic infection, or injury.

The art of bone grafting

Current Opinion in Orthopaedics, 2007
Purpose of review The purpose of the review is to highlight recent advances in bone graft techniques and make evidence-based recommendations concerning their surgical application. Recent findings Extensive preclinical and clinical studies have led to a better understanding of bone osteogenesis resulting in the classification of bone graft materials ...

VASCULARIZED BONE GRAFTS

Orthopedics, 1994
ABSTRACT Free vascularized bone grafts allow living bone tissue to be transplanted to replace a bone defect. The use of vascularized bone grafts requires microvascular dissection and attachment to a recipient site artery and vein, whereas rotational or pedicle grafts are moved, while still attached to their blood supply, to a new site ...

Bone grafts and their substitutes

The Bone & Joint Journal, 2016
The continual cycle of bone formation and resorption is carried out by osteoblasts, osteocytes, and osteoclasts under the direction of the bone-signaling pathway. In certain situations the host cycle of bone repair is insufficient and requires the assistance of bone grafts and their substitutes.
