The aim of this study is to compare the bone healing mechanism and osteogenic capacity between bovine bone mineral loaded with hAMSC and autogenous bone graft in the reconstruction of critical size mandibular bone defect. Critical size defects were made at the mandible of 45 New Zealand white rabbits reconstructed with BBM-hAMSC, BBM alone, and ABG, respectively. At the end of first, second, and twelfth weeks, five rabbits from each experimental week were sacrificed for histology and immunohistochemistry staining. Expressions of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), bone mor-phogenic proteins-2 (BMP2), Runx2 and the amount of angiogenesis were analyzed in the first and second week groups, while expressions of Runx2, osteocalcin, collagen type-I fibres, trabecular area and bone incorporation were analyzed in the twelfth week groups. The result showed that expressions of VEGF, BMP2 and Runx2 as well as the amount of angiogenesis were higher in ABG compared with BBM-hAMSC group in the first and second weeks of healing. The result of twelfth week of healing showed that expressions of Runx2 and osteocalcin as well as the thickness of collagen type-I fibres were significantly higher in BBM-hAMSC compared to ABG group, while there was no statistically difference in trabecular area and bone incorporation between BBM-hAMSC and ABG group. This study concluded that early healing activities were higher in auto-genous bone graft than in BBM-hAMSC, while osteogenic activities in the late stage of healing were higher in BBM-hAMSC compared to autogenous bone graft. It was also concluded that the osteo-genic capacity of BBM-hAMSC was comparable to autogenous bone graft in the reconstruction of critical size defect in the mandible.展开更多

If not treated, ameloblastoma can gain an enormous size and cause severe facial disfigurement and functional impairment. Here we report two patients afflicted with extensive mandibular ameloblastoma (sized in 23 cm × 18 cm × 17 cm and 15 cm × 12 cm × 10 cm, respectively). Both the patients received the same sequential treatment including radical tumor resection, simultaneous reconstruction with fibula free flap graft, vertical distraction osteogenesis on the fibula graft, placement of endosseous dental implants, and final pros-thodontic rehabilitation. It took about 15 months to finish the entire course of treatment. And after the four-year follow-up, neither soft tissue related, nor hard tissue related problems were observed. Satisfactory facial symmetry, chewing and speech functions of the patients were restored. So this sequential treatment for extensive mandibular ameloblastoma can obtain an excellent effect by the shortest time and the lowest economical cost. Furthermore, the series also can be used to reconstruct giant mandibular defects caused by different reasons.展开更多

文摘Background:Three-dimensional(3D)printed tissue engineered bone was used to repair the bone tissue defects in the oral and maxillofacial(OMF)region of experimental dogs.Material and methods:Canine bone marrow stromal cells(BMSCs)were obtained from 9 male Beagle dogs and in vitro cultured for osteogenic differentiation.The OMF region was scanned for 3D printed surgical guide plate and mold by ProJet1200 high-precision printer using implant materials followed sintering at 1250℃.The tissue engineered bones was co-cultured with BASCs for 2 or 8 d.The cell scaffold composite was placed in the defects and fixed in 9 dogs in 3 groups.Postoperative CT and/or micro-CT scans were performed to observe the osteogenesis and material degradation.Results:BMSCs were cultured with osteogenic differentiation in the second generation(P2).The nanoporous hydroxyapatite implant was made using the 3D printing mold with the white porous structure and the hard texture.BMSCs with osteogenic induction were densely covered with the surface of the material after co-culture and ECM was secreted to form calcium-like crystal nodules.The effect of the tissue engineered bone on the in vivo osteogenesis ability was no significant difference between 2 d and 8 d of the compositing time.Conclusions:The tissue-engineered bone was constructed by 3D printing mold and hightemperature sintering to produce nanoporous hydroxyapatite scaffolds,which repair in situ bone defects in experimental dogs.The time of compositing for tissue engineered bone was reduced from 8 d to 2 d without the in vivo effect.
