Acknowledgements • Dr. Sacevich • JBJS • OTA • JAAOS
Overview • Properties • Mechanism of Action • Bone Grafts • Bone Graft Substitutes • OITE
Bone Graft Properties • Function in Trauma • Mechanical Support • Impaction • Void Filler • Segmental defects • Improve Fracture healing • Non-union • Arthrodesis
OITE • (OBQ04-274) Which of the following substances is osteoinductive? • 1. Calcium phosphate • 2. Hydroxyapatite • 3. Collagen-based matrix • 4. Cancellous allograft • 5. Cancellousautograft
Bone Graft Properties • Osteoconduction • Scaffold on which bone and bone-forming cells can attach • Osteoinduction • Stimulation of undifferentiated mesenchymal cells to differentiate along the chondro-osteogenicpathway • Osteogenic • Generation of new bone directly by transplanted bone-forming cells
Mechanism of Action • Hematoma Formation • Local release of cytokines and GFs • Inflammation • Fibrovascular tissue formation • Vascular Ingrowth • Haversian system remodelling • Osteoclasicresorption of graft • Enchondral bone formation
Autograft • Current gold standard for void filler, healing augmentation • Osteoinductive, osteoconductive, osteogenic • Limited by volume, donor site morbidity, surgical time • BUT • There has never been any study comparing autograft to control (ie. wound bed preparation) • Overall: Grade C recomendations
Autograft • Cortical • Osteoconductive • Provide immediate stability in structural defects • Weaken by 6 months, regain strength by 12 months • Cancellous • Osteoconductive, osteoinductive, osteogenic • Minimal structural support • Rapid incorporation and remodeling (creeping substitution) • Vascularized by 2 days
Autograft • Potential harvest sites • Iliac Crest • Tibial Metaphysis • Distal Radius • Greater Trochanter • RIA
Autograft • Iliac Crest • Anterior • Max Volume13 ml • Posterior • Max Volume 30 ml • Acetabular reamer • Max Volume 90 ml (morcellizedcorticocancellous)
Reamer Irrigator Aspirator (RIA) • Developed to decompress canal in effort to decrease pulmonary complications • Able to harverst 90 ml of graft • Early studies • Similar cell populations as ICBG • Efficacy equal ICBG • Less harvest site pain
RIA • Technique • Antegrade or retrograde femur, tibia • Template isthmus size to choose reamer head • Ream max 2mm of IM cortices • Ensure concentric placement of guidewire • Can bend to harvest condyles • Filter captures filtrate and graft
RIA • Complications • Blood loss • 12.5% transfusion rate • Incarceration within canal • HD compromize • Iatrogenic fracture 4% • Risk increased in osteoporotic bone
Allograft • Osteoconductive, +/- Osteoinductive • Processing removes most inductive properties • Cortical graft incorporation via creeping substitution and intramembranous bone formation • Cancellous graft incorporates via enchondral bone formation
Allograft • Options • Fresh • High immunogenicity, limited use • Fresh Frozen • Less antigenic • Retains mechanical properties • Shelf life: 1 year at -20°, 5 years at -70° • Freeze-dried • Least antigenic • Dehydrated and vaccumpacking • Shelf life: 5 years at room temp

OITE • A 20-year-old male is involved in motor vehicle collision and sustains a depressed tibial plateau fracture. When performing surgery, if calcium sulfate is used as the primary bone substitute void filler, an increase in which of the following outcomes may be expected as compared to autograft? • 1. Increased complications due to serous drainage • 2. Improved clinical outcomes as shown by more rapid time to healing • 3. Improved clinical outcomes as shown by SF-36 scores • 4. Increased complications due to autoimmune reactions and graft rejection • 5. Equivalent complication rates and clinical outcomes
Calcium Sulfate • Plaster of Paris • Sold as Osteoset(Wright), many others • Pellet or injectable paste form • Compressive Strength • Similar to cancellous bone • Resorption • Very fast – 4 -12 weeks
Calcium Sulfate • Uses • Largely as a graft extender (void filler) • Compressive strength limits role in structural support • Injectible form may increase screw purchase • Antibiotic delivery vehicle • Tobramycin additive • Used in (potentially) infected spaces • Warning: Sterile wound drainage
