Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Autologous bone graft is the best method to repair bone defects after tumor curettage, but its shortcomings are as folows: increased surgical trauma, sequelae at bone graft site such as infection and pain, and a limited amount of autologous bone. OBJECTIVE:To analyze the effectiveness of xenograft and calcium sulphate artificial bone in treating bone defects after benign bone tumor removed. METHODS:Totaly 26 cases of benign bone tumor were selected, including 8 cases of giant celltumor, 5 of enchondroma, 4 of fibrous histiocytoma, 3 of bone fibrous dysplasia, 2 of non-ossifying fibroma, 2 cases of bone cysts, 1 of aneurysmal bone cyst and 1 of aneurysmal bone cyst and 1 case of chondroblastoma. Of the 26 cases, 12 cases underwent calcium sulphate pelets alone to fil bone defects after benign bone tumor removed, 6 cases were subjected to xenograft alone, and 8 cases were treated with calcium sulphate pelets combined with xenograft. The X-rays were taken at 1 week, 3 months, and 1 year after the operation in al patients to assess the bone healing process. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Al the patients were folowed up for 36-72 months. The absorption of calcium sulphate appeared to be absorbed earlier, the earlier absorption appearance could be observed as earlier as 1 month after the implantation, and most calcium sulphate was absolved and replaced by new bone at 3 months after the operation. The xenograft bone was degraded at 3 months post implantation and new bone formed. Osseo integration of the graft was observed at the periphery of the implant at 6 months post implantation. One year post implantation, trabecular bone was observed at the site with uniform bone density. In the combined group, thecalcium sulphate pelets were absorbed earlier and new bone formed earlier than the calcium sulphate alone group, and the xenograft absorbed later than the calcium sulphate pelets. Generaly, bony union was detectable 1 year after operation. These findings indicate that xenograft and calcium sulphate in treating benign bone tumor have acquired good results, which can be used as a substitute of autologous bone.
