• The Performance of a Sterile Demineralized Bone Matrix Putty in a Rabbit Posterolateral Fusion Model
ثبت نشده
چکیده
INTRODUCTION: Bone fusion, such as in spinal surgeries, may be accelerated through the use of a bone graft substitute (BGS). While autograft was considered the gold standard of treatment, it can be undesirable for use by surgeons due to donor site morbidity and limited availability. As an alternate method of treatment, human allograft Demineralized Bone Matrix (DBM) can be used by surgeons either alone as a graft substitute or in combination with local bone as a graft extender. Recently, a BGS putty was developed using DBM and homogenized connective tissue matrix. To assess the efficacy of this DBM Putty as a bone void filler in the spine, a posterolateral fusion (PLF) study was conducted using euthymic rabbits. This study assessed bridging, new woven bone, and the amount of viable bone via histology and bone formation through microCT. The DBM Putty was tested as both a graft substitute and a graft extender, and compared to an autograft control group at nine weeks.

INTRODUCTION Autogenous iliac crest bone graft continues to be the material of choice for posterolateral lumbar intertransverse process spine fusion. However, continued interest lies in developing bone graft alternatives that can be used as either graft extenders, graft enhancers, or graft substitutes. It was the purpose of this study to evaluate the efficacy of a demineralized bone matrix/ hya...

The purpose of this study was to compare the osteogenic potential of a synthetic and a demineralized bone matrix (DBM) putty using a cranial defect model in New Zealand white rabbits. Paired, bilateral critical-size defects (10 mm) were prepared in the frontal bones of 12 rabbits and filled with either OsteoSelect DBM Putty or NovaBone calcium-phosphosilicate putty. At days 43 and 91, 6 rabbits...
متن کاملThe fusion rate of demineralized bone matrix compared with autogenous iliac bone graft for long multi-segment posterolateral spinal fusion
BACKGROUND Although autogenous iliac bone graft (AIBG) remains the gold standard for spine fusion, harvesting morbidity has prompted the search for alternatives especially for multi-segment fusion. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of using demineralized bone matrix (DBM) as a substitute of AIBG for long instrumented posterolateral fusion (≧ three-level fusion). METHODS A total of 47 ...

STUDY DESIGN Retrospective study. PURPOSE To compare the union rate of posterolateral lumbar fusion (PLF) using demineralized bone matrix (DBM) versus hydroxyapatite (HA) as bone graft extender. OVERVIEW OF LITERATURE To our knowledge, there has been no clinical trial to compare the outcomes of DBM versus HA as a graft material for PLF. METHODS We analyzed prospectively collected data fro...
