Journal ArticleDOI

Bone regeneration: current concepts and future directions

TL;DR: Improved 'local' strategies in terms of tissue engineering and gene therapy, or even 'systemic' enhancement of bone repair, are under intense investigation, in an effort to overcome the limitations of the current methods, to produce bone-graft substitutes with biomechanical properties that are as identical to normal bone as possible.
Journal ArticleDOI

Current concepts of molecular aspects of bone healing.

TL;DR: An understanding of the fracture healing cellular and molecular pathways is not only critical for the future advancement of fracture treatment, but it may also be informative to the further understanding ofThe mechanisms of skeletal growth and repair as well as the mechanisms of aging.
Journal ArticleDOI

Complications following autologous bone graft harvesting from the iliac crest and using the RIA: a systematic review.

TL;DR: The use of RIA device as harvesting method seems a promising alternative with a low complication rate and the rates of certain complications were found to significantly differ when anterior or posterior iliac crest was used.
Journal ArticleDOI

Masquelet technique for the treatment of bone defects: tips-tricks and future directions.

TL;DR: The aim of this article was to briefly describe the technique, to review the current evidence and to discuss the tips and tricks that could help the surgeons to improve outcome.
Journal ArticleDOI

The role of barrier membranes for guided bone regeneration and restoration of large bone defects: current experimental and clinical evidence

TL;DR: Before clinical applications can be recommended, future research should aim to establish the 'ideal' barrier membrane and delineate the need for additional bone grafting materials aiming to 'mimic' or even accelerate the normal process of bone formation.
