Infection and tissue engineering in segmental bone defects—a mini review

Abstract: As tissue engineering becomes more of a clinical reality through the ongoing bench to bedside transition, research in this field must focus on addressing relevant clinical situations. While most in vivo work in the area of bone tissue engineering focuses on bone regeneration within sterile, surgically created defects, there is a growing need for investigation of bone tissue engineering approaches within contaminated or scarred wound beds, such as those that may be encountered following traumatic injury or duri… Show more

“…80 Over 100 000 cases of implant-associated infection and osteomyelitis are reported annually in the United States. 55 On average, 2% to 5% of internal fixation devices become infected 19,74 and may require surgical removal to eliminate the infection. Up to 70% of organisms isolated in prosthetic joint infections are Grampositive agents, including Staphylococcus epidermidis, Staphylococcus aureus, and b-hemolytic streptococci.…”

“…The in situ implantation of a local antibiotic delivery system works to obliterate bacteria in the area as well as to reduce the dead space in the bone (Nair et al, 2011). Its use results in a lower serum antibiotic concentration than that associated with systemic administration, thereby reducing toxicity-related side-effects (Joosten et al, 2005;Samuel et al, 2012) (Table II).…”
