Patient-specific 3D-printed shelf implant for the treatment of hip dysplasia
Anatomical and biomechanical outcomes in a canine model
A solution for challenging hip dysplasia surgery could be a patient-specific 3D-printed shelf implant that is positioned extra-articular and restores the dysplastic acetabular rim to normal anatomical dimensions. The anatomical correction and biomechanical stability of this co ...
The concept of a novel patient-specific 3D-printed shelf implant should be evaluated in a relevant large animal model with hip dysplasia. Therefore, three dogs with radiographic bilateral hip dysplasia and a positive subluxation test underwent unilateral acetabular augmentatio ...
OBJECTIVE: Folate receptor beta (FR-β) has been used as a clinical marker and target in multiple inflammatory diseases, including osteoarthritis (OA) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA). However, the conditions under which FR-β+ macrophages arise remain unclear and could be affected ...
The main challenge in bone morphogenic protein 2 (BMP-2)-based application lies in finding strategies that prolong its effective period as it has a short biological half-life. Several BMP-2 release profiles have shown to enhance bone formation at v ...
