Gluteal Augmentation Techniques: A Comprehensive Literature Review

TL;DR: Implant‐based gluteal augmentation is associated with high patients' satisfaction despite a high complication rate, while autologous fat grafting is associatedWith the lowest complication rate yet including serious major complications such as fat embolism.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of controlled co-delivery of synergistic neurotrophic factors on early nerve regeneration in rats.

TL;DR: The enhancement of early axonal regeneration using controlled co-delivery of multiple synergistic neurotrophic factors is an important requisite for eventually establishing functional connections with the target organ.
Journal ArticleDOI

Collagen (NeuraGen®) nerve conduits and stem cells for peripheral nerve gap repair

TL;DR: Collagen nerve guides showed high affinity of regenerative cells and could be used as efficient vehicle for cell delivery, however, surface modifications (e.g. with extracellular matrix molecule peptides) of NeuraGen(®) guides could be use in future tissue-engineering applications to better exploit the cell potential.
Journal ArticleDOI

Extracellular matrix components in peripheral nerve repair: how to affect neural cellular response and nerve regeneration?

TL;DR: This review provides an overview on the importance of extracellular matrix molecules in peripheral nerve repair and recommends conduit fillers for cell transplantation at the injury site, reducing the lag time required for endogenous Schwann cells to proliferate and take part in the regeneration process.
