AUTOGENOUS DICED CARTILAGE TRANSPLANTS TO BONE AN EXPERIMENTAL STUDY

Intraosseous dental implants fixed on mandibular autogenous bone transplants

We present our experience of one-time and secondary free bone plastic surgery of the mandible with autogenous iliac transplants. We formed them with three-dimensional computed tomography skull views to increase the cell osteoblastic activity and processes of regeneration and remodeling. On the autogenous bone transplants we placed intraosseous dental implants Bulgarian "SIP" system. We followed...

Autologous Diced Cartilage in Nasal Septoplasty

Diced rib cartilage is an acceptable option in severe nasal deformities. We present our preliminary experience in KAMC in nasal septoplasties using the autologous diced costal cartilage. This is a retrospective study of the 22 cases who needed the autologous diced costal cartilage in our centre in 4 years. All our patients needed autologous diced rib cartilages. Twelve were wrapped with tempora...

The effect of cartilage and bone density of mushroom-shaped, photooxidized, osteochondral transplants: an experimental study on graft performance in sheep using transplants originating from different species

BACKGROUND Differences in overall performance of osteochondral photooxidized grafts were studied in accordance of their species origin and a new, more rigorous cleansing procedure using alcohol during preparation. METHODS Photooxidized mushroom-shaped grafts of bovine, ovine, human and equine origin were implanted in the femoral condyles of 32 sheep (condyles: n = 64). No viable chondrocytes ...
