Intramedullary application of bone morphogenetic protein in the management of a major bone defect after an Ilizarov procedure.

چکیده
We describe a patient with insufficient bone regeneration of the tibia after bone transport over an intramedullary nail, in whom union was ultimately achieved after exchange nailing and intramedullary application of rh-bone morphogenetic protein-7 at the site of distraction.

Combined treatment of congenital pseudarthrosis of the tibia, including recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2: a case series.
The use of recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2) for the treatment of congenital pseudarthrosis of the tibia has been investigated in only one previous study, with promising results. The aim of this study was to determine whether rhBMP-2 might improve the outcome of this disorder. We reviewed the medical records of five patients with a mean age of 7.4 years (2.3 to 21) with c...
متن کاملEvaluation of management of tibial non-union defect with Ilizarov fixator.
BACKGROUND Tibial bone defect lead to limb shortening and functional deficit and needs proper treatment. There are various treatment modalities for bone defect in long bone to restore length and function of the limb, i.e. bone grafting, vascularised bone graft, allograft and bone transport. Bone transport can be done through fixators (uniplaner or ring) and intramedullary nail system. This stud...
متن کاملComparison of Cell Viability and Embryoid Body Size of Two Embryonic Stem Cell Lines After Different Exposure Times to Bone Morphogenetic Protein 4
Background: Activation of bone morphogenetic protein 4 (BMP4) signaling pathway in embryonic stem (ES) cells plays an important role in controlling cell proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. Adverse effects of BMP4 occur in a time dependent manner; however, little is known about the effect of different time exposure of this growth factor on cell number in culture media. In this study, ...

متن کاملManagement of a large post-traumatic skin and bone defect using an Ilizarov frame.
The authors report the case of a 28-year old male who presented with a compound diaphyseal fracture of the tibia, which was treated with intramedullary nailing. Postoperatively he required an extensive fasciotomy for an acute compartment syndrome. The fracture evolved towards post-traumatic osteomyelitis, growing methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), combined with a large overlyin...
