Characterization of bone repair in rat femur after treatment with calcium phosphate cement and autogenous bone graft

Abstract: BackgroundIn this study, the biocompatibility, stability and osteotransductivity of a new cement based on alpha-tricalcium phosphate (alpha-TCP) were investigated in a bone repair model using a rat model.MethodsThe potential of alpha-TCP on bone repair was compared to autogenous bone grafting, and unfilled cavities were used as negative control. Surgical cavities were prepared and designated as test (T), implanted with alpha-TCP blocks; negative control (C - ), unfilled; and positive control (C + ), implanted … Show more

“…An interesting study on the in vitro resorption of three apatite cements (conventional, fast-setting and anti-washout) by osteoclasts if compared with a similar resorption of sintered HA and a cortical bone revealed an intermediate behavior of the cements: they were resorbed slower than bone but faster than HA [362]. Furthermore, bone neo-formation was seen 7 seven days after implantation of an α-TCP cement [363]. The biodegradation rate of the cements might be influenced by ionic substitutions in calcium orthophosphates [364].…”

“…Autogenous bone grafts: Also known as autografts, they are obtained from unaffected donor sites from the own receptor individual. The regeneration of the bone defect occurs by mechanisms involving osteogenesis, osteoinduction and osteoconduction [17,46,61,62]. These are the most used grafts due to their biocompatibility and non-immunogenicity, being considered sometimes as standards for bone-grafting [61].…”

“…An interesting study on the in vitro resorption of three apatite-forming formulations (conventional, fast-setting and anti-washout) by osteoclasts if compared with a similar resorption of sintered HA and a cortical bone revealed an intermediate behavior of the formulations: they were resorbed slower than bone but faster than HA [408]. Furthermore, bone neo-formation was seen 7 seven days after implantation of a self-setting α-TCP formulation [409]. The biodegradation rate of the formulations might be influenced by ionic substitutions in calcium orthophosphates [410].…”
