Reconstruction of orbital floor fractures using bioactive glass

Bioactive glass-containing cranial implants: an overview

“…In many of the FRC material studies, there have been additional BG (S53P4) particles on the surface of the FRC implant [24,25,62,63]. BGs are synthetic resorbable, biocompatible, osteoconductive-osteoinductive bone substitutes, and some compositions of BGs have clinically been used because of bonebonding capacity, antibacterial and angiogenesispromoting properties [64][65][66][67][68][69]. FRC-BG implant has been tested by animal tests for cranial implant applications as well as for orthopedics and oral implantology.…”

Development and Applications of Varieties of Bioactive Glass Compositions in Dental Surgery, Third Generation Tissue Engineering, Orthopaedic Surgery and as Drug Delivery System

“…Bioactive glass has been used in cranio-maxillofacial reconstruction especially on the repair of periodontal and alveolar ridge defects (Quinones & Lovelace, 1997;Han et al, 2002;Sy, 2002;Throndson & Sexton, 2002;Norton & Wilson, 2002;Knapp et al, 2003) although its use is also extended for successful reconstruction of other areas of the head and neck (Scotchford et al, 2011). Bioactive glass has been utilized for the repair of orbital floor fractures with maintenance of globe position (Kinnunen et al, 2000;Aitasalo et al, 2001) and elevation of the floor of the maxillary sinus floor (Tadjoedin et al, 2002) in combination with autogenous iliac bone. Bioactive glass particles (Nova Bone, Porex Surgical) mixed with autogenous bone particles has also been used to cranial vault reconstruction (Gosain, 2003), in clinical studies in the treatment of cystic defects, ridge augmentations, apical resections, extraction sites, periodontal osseous defects and sinus lifts and augmentation (Furusawa T, Mizunuma, 1997;Low et al, 1997;Lovelace et al, 1998;Galindo-Moreno et al, 2008;Klongnoi et al, 2006).…”

“…Screw augmentation with bioactive glass was evaluated in 37 Weber type B ankle fractures with no information of screw loosening within a period of 2 years (Andreassen et al, 2004). Bioactive glass have been clinically used in vertebroplasty (Middleton et al, 2008;Palussiere et al, 2005), treatment of an unstable distal radius fracture (Smit et al, 2005), tympanoplastic reconstruction (Reck, 1983), as filling material in benign tumour surgery , for reconstruction of defects in facial bones [Suominen & Kinnunen, 1996], for treatment of periodontal bone defects (Villaca et al, 2005;Leonetti et al, 2000), in obliteration of frontal sinuses (Suonpaa et al, 1997;Peltola et al, 2000aPeltola et al, , 2000b, in repairing orbital floor fractures (Kinnunen et al, 2000;Aitasalo et al, 2001), in lumbar fusion (Ido et al, 2000), reconstruction of the maxillary sinus (Scala et al, 2007), in cementless metalbacked acetabular cups (Hedia et al, 2006) and for reconstruction of the iliac crest defect after bone graft harvesting (Asano et al, 1994). The combination of a thermoplastic, viscous carrier with a granular bioglass scaffold allowed for the delivery of allergenic mesenchymal stem cells in a clinically manageable form that enhanced bone formation at early stages of canine alveolar repair (Mylonas et al, 2007).…”

“…Этот косметический недостаток является тяжёлой психологической травмой для пациентов, нарушающей их социальную адаптацию и влияющей на качество жизни. Aitasalo (Kinnunen et al, 2000). Однако в ра-боте M. Peltola (Peltola et al, 2008) (Francel et al, 1992), включая орбиталь-ную хирургию (Enislidis et al, 1997).…”
