Engineering an artificial trachea: Quantitative benchmarks and modular strategies for mechanics, epithelialization, and vascular integration

FlexMat, EarlyView.
In this work, we first examine the limitations of surgical repair and stenting, including migration, granulation, mucus plugging, and infection. We then translate these failures into engineering constraints involving geometry, mechanics, fixation, degradation, junctional stress, and remodeling.

From nature to nanoscale: advances, challenges, and preclinical translation of nanofiber drug delivery systems containing plant‐derived active ingredients

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Since the early 1960s, nanotechnology has been a critical area of science, allowing for the development of sophisticated nanomaterials. Nanofibers, one of the most widely used nanotechnological drug delivery systems, have emerged as a highly versatile platform within modern pharmaceutical sciences.

Autologous minimally manipulated adipose‐derived stromal vascular fraction in knee osteoarthritis: Lasting symptom relief and imaging evidence from a 12‐month prospective study

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To evaluate the safety and efficacy of intra‐articular autologous transplantation of adipose‐derived connective tissue micrografts rich in stromal vascular fraction (CTM‐SVF), obtained using an enzyme‐free system (Hy‐Tissue® SVF) for knee osteoarthritis (OA). Methods Thirty patients (mean age of 53.3 ± 6.4 years) with Kellgren–Lawrence

Managing the meniscus Part 2: Traumatic tear patterns, biologic augmentation, transplantation, innovation and future research

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Acute, traumatic meniscus tears are common and should be repaired whenever possible. However, the biological age of the patient, along with the specific tear morphology, may significantly influence the selection of the repair technique, expected clinical outcomes and the postoperative rehabilitation protocol.

The feasibility of human embryonic stem cell (hESC)-derived cartilage for tracheoplasty

Regenerative Therapy
Introduction: Airway reconstruction with autologous costal cartilage often results in long-term complications. On the other hand, implant-type regenerated cartilage using chondrocytes and scaffolds is associated with better biocompatibility and outcomes.

Non‐anatomical MPFL reconstruction and failure to address relevant pathologies are common reasons for treatment injuries following treatment for patellofemoral instability

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Management of patellofemoral instability (PFI) tailored to the individual patoanatomy can be complex with potential pitfalls. However, reports on complications and suboptimal outcomes remain limited. The aim of this study was to analyse problems related to PFI treatment in Denmark.

Revision ACL reconstruction using a modified iliotibial band–allograft technique for combined ACL and lateral extra‐articular procedure achieves comparable outcomes to bone–patellar tendon–bone with modified Lemaire

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose In revision anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (R‐ACLR), adding a lateral extra‐articular procedure (LEAP) reduces graft failure and postoperative laxity. Iliotibial band (ITB)‐based techniques may avoid patellar tendon harvesting morbidity, but evidence in adults, particularly in revision cases, remains limited.

Costal cartilage fractures as revealed on CT and sonography.

, 2001
OBJECTIVE: We describe the CT and sonographic appearance of 15 costal cartilage fractures observed in eight patients. CONCLUSION: On CT, fracture was seen as a low-density area through the costal cartilage, with surrounding calcifications present near ...
