oudSt.Jan-morus

To regenerate a tumour related defect or an atropic jaw instead of justrepairing it, is the issue of the 21th century. Bone substitutes, which areavailable on the market today, do not offer osteoinductive properties,on the other hand harvesting of autogenous bone brings up donor sitemorbidity.Growthfactoreslikeplateletrichplasmaorbonemorphogeneticproteinsalonecouldnotfulfilltheneedsandexpectations.InKiel,asaroutineprocedure,astemcellbasedapproachisappliedfortwoyearsnow.Morethan30patientsreceivedthiskindoftreatment.Besidestheclinicaloutcomes,CT-studiesandbonebiopsieswererecorded.The results show a superior outcome compared to patients receiving thestandardtechnique(iliaccrest/bonesubstitute).Inconclusionwecanstate,that thestemcellbasedapproachmighthelp to improve the regenerationtechniquesandreducethedonorsitemorbidity.
