objective(s): adipose derived stem cells (adscs) can be engineered to express bone specific markers. the aim of this study is to evaluate repairing tibia in animal model with differentiated osteoblasts from autologous adscs in alginate scaffold. materials and methods: in this study, 6 canine’s adscs were encapsulated in alginate and differentiated into osteoblasts. alkaline phosphatase assay (a...

aneurysmal bone cyst (abc) is a benign expansile bone tumor, most commonly involving the medulla of long bones. abc rarely arises within the cortex or in the subperiosteal region, radiographically mimicking other conditions, in particular surface osteosarcomathat is low-grade in nature and may go secondary abc changes, and telangiectatic osteosarcoma. both of these are sometimes mistaken micros...

The material properties of cortical bone from the diaphyses of long bones (e.g., the femur and tibia) vary by direction, such that bone is stiffer and stronger along its long axis. This configuration improves the abilities of these structures to resist axial compressive loads coupled with bending. As in long bones, cortical bone from the cranial vault is subject to mechanical loads from various...

BACKGROUND Bone-grafting procedures are common in head and neck surgery. Donor site morbidity is an important factor in deciding the site for harvest of cancellous bone. The tibia has been recommended as a harvest site. Use of the proximal tibia as a donor site is associated with few complications. Our present study used proximal tibia bone grafts to reconstruct maxillofacial defects and augmen...

BACKGROUND The use of artificial endoprostheses has become a routine procedure for knee and hip joints while ankle arthritis has traditionally been treated by means of arthrodesis. Due to its advantages, the implantation of endoprostheses is constantly increasing. While finite element analyses (FEA) of strain-adaptive bone remodelling have been carried out for the hip joint in previous studies,...

of the Caucasian population. The purpose of this study was to investigate the morphometry of the proximal tibia in thestandard resected surface of total knee arthroplasty (TKA).Methods: In this descriptive study, the anthropometric data of the proximal tibia were measured in 132 knees (80 malesand 52 females) using magnetic resonance imaging in 2015. The collected data include...

Introduction: Giant cell tumor (GCT) is a distinctive lesion characterized by the proliferation of multinucleate giant cells in stroma mononuclear cells; it generally seen skeletally mature individuals. GCT usually found long bones around knee or distal radius but end tibia, proximal humerus, vertebrae young adults are unusual location. We report case with secondary aneurysmal bone cyst, 26-yea...

Clinical and experimental studies have demonstrated some negative effect of hypertension on bone mineral density. The aim of this study was to evaluate bone healing and trabecular bone area (TBA) in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR), a well-established model of essential hypertension, when compared to normotensive rats (NTR). A critical-size defect was surgically created in the right tibia ...

The Late Jurassic Allosaurus is one of the better-studied dinosaurs. A histological and geochemical study a tibia femur A. fragilis recovered in Upper Cleveland-Lloyd Dinosaur Quarry, Utah, United States has been done order to address growth characteristics this species. two bones, probably belonging separate individuals, are among largest known for species, which make them suitable such issues...

chondromyxoid fibroma is a rare benign cartilaginous neoplasm that mostly affects the metaphyseal region of the long bones. the tibia, small tubular bones of the foot, the distal femur and pelvis are common locations, but involvement of the vertebral bones, especially the cervical vertebra, is very rare. radiographic features show typical characteristics and this tumor often presents as a lobul...
