THE CONSTRUCTION AND CLINICAL APPLICATION OF TISSUE ENGINEERED BONE

T

issue engineering construct has been already used to repair some kinds of bone defect in clinical patients, but

repairing massive segmental bony defect in tibia more than 10cm still has not been reported. We describe a

case of patient who received a tissue engineered bone graft for repairing the 12cm bone defect in his right tibia

and report the findings after 36 months of follow-up. The recipient, a 35-year-old man from China, had his leg

severely injured in September, 2014 and got massive tibia defect after 1 year of treatment using external fixator.

Implantation of tissue engineered bone graft was done in August, 2015. A β-tricalciumphosphate (β-Β-TCP) scaf-

fold was custom-made according to the shape of the bone defect area. The patient got bone marrow aspiration

and 15ml bone marrow was used for isolation and proliferation to get enough autologous bone menchymal

stem cells (BMSCs) with serum-free stem cell medium to avoid immune rejection. 3.4×10 6 cells were seeded

onto the β-Β-TCP scaffold and then implanted into the bone defect area after two weeks of co-culture. Labora-

tory blood examination was used to observe the immune rejection or infection. The radiography and three-di-

mensional computed tomography (CT) were used to detect the bone repair effect. No major complications and

no obvious immune rejection or infection occurred after the surgery.

After 3, 6, 12, 24 and 36 months, radiography showed bone defect gradually repaired with time, and bone re-

pair effect was satisfactory. The patient was allowed to gradually regain limb function after 12 months. After 36

months, the patient recovered a full function of the lower extremity without any support. Our promising results

suggest the clinical safety and effectiveness of tissue engineered bone for repairing massive weight-bearing

tibia bone defect more than 10cm. And our treatment procedure might be an option for those patients with

weight- bearing massive bone defect.
