[ 1 ] - Transplantation of mesenchymal stem cells, recombinant human BMP-2, and their combination in accelerating the :union: after osteotomy and in-creasing, the mechanical strength of extracorporeally irradiated femoral autograft in rat models
Background :Delayed :::union:::, non:::union:::, and mechanical failure is still problems encountered in limb salvage surgery (LSS) using extracorporeal irradiation (ECI). This study aimed to determine whether bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) and recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2) improve host-graft :::union::: after osteotomy and also increase its mechanical str...
[ 2 ] - Various Dosages of BMP-2 for Management of Massive Bone Defect in Sprague Dawley Rat
Introduction: The use of BMP-2 plays an important role in the treatment of extensive bone defect. However, data about the optimal dosage of BMP-2 in the massive bone defect cases is rare. Material and Method: Twenty-five SD rats were randomly divided into a control group ofhydroxyapatite (HA) alone (Group I), HA+BMP-2 1µg/mL (Group II), HA+BMP-2 5 ug/mL (Group III), HA+BMP-2 10 µg/mL (Gro...
[ 3 ] - Various Surgical Treatment of Haemophilic Pseudotumor : A Case Series
Introduction. Bleeding episodes in severe hemophilia may occur more frequently and spontaneously after mild trauma or daily activities. An inadequate treatment of that bleeding in hemophilia may result in pseudotumor, usually in the muscle adjacent to the bone. We reported haemophilic pseudotumor treated with various surgical interventions. Methods. This study was conducted inthe Departme...
