Stem Cell Research & Therapy, 2020 Background Distraction osteogenesis (DO) is a surgical technique to promote bone regeneration which may require long duration for bone consolidation. Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been applied to accelerate bone formation in DO ...

Brachymetatarsia: Surgical Management, Case Report, and Literature Review
Case Reports in Orthopedics, 2022 Background. Brachymetatarsia is defined by an abnormal shortening of the metatarsal bone. This rare condition is mostly primary and congenital. Consequences of this malformation are both esthetic and functional, due to pain and mechanical problems in the

Growth Plate Injuries of the Lower Extremity: Case Examples and Lessons Learned. [PDF]
, 2018 BackgroundThe presence of growth plates at the ends of long bones makes fracture management in children unique in terms of the potential risk of developing angular deformities and growth arrest.Materials and methodsWe discuss three distinct cases ...

The Minimally Invasive Plate Osteosynthesis (MIPO) Technique with a Locking Compression Plate for Femoral Lengthening [PDF]
, 2008 A minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis technique using a locking compression plate (LCP) has been used widely in trauma cases. Its advantages are that the MIPO technique does not interfere with the fracture site and thus provides improved biological ...

BONE LENGTHENING BY PHYSIAL DISTRACTION. AN EXPERIMENTAL STUDY [PDF]
Journal of Pediatric Orthopaedics, 1986 Experimental physial distraction was carried out in the distal part of the femur in 45 two-month old lambs in order to study the basic mechanisms of lengthening as well as the viability of the growth cartilage after using this method. The animals were divided into three groups (A, B and C), and each group into three subgroups (1, 2 and 3) according to ...

Suppression of mammalian bone growth by membrane transport inhibitors [PDF]
, 2013 Bone lengthening during skeletal growth is driven primarily by the controlled enlargement of growth plate (GP) chondrocytes. The cellular mechanisms are unclear but membrane transporters are probably involved.

Analysis of strut-to-bone lengthening ratio for hexapod frames using mathematical modeling
Journal of Limb Lengthening & Reconstruction, 2017 Background: Hexapod external fixators often incorporate bone lengthening as part of a multi-planar deformity correction plan. The hexapod struts, however, do not distract in the direction of bone lengthening. Their oblique orientation to the ring creates

Muscle force is determined also by muscle relative position: isolated effects [PDF]
, 2004 Effects on force of changes of the position of extensor digitorum longus muscle (EDL) relative to surrounding tissues were investigated in rat. Connective tissue at the muscle bellies of tibialis anterior (TA), extensor hallucis longus (EHL) and EDL was ...
