Abstract:
BACKGROUND:As bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s can be differentiated into osteoblasts under certain induction conditions, autologous bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s can be implanted into the bone nonunion site of bone fracture. This new technology garners increasing attention of orthopedic clinicians.
OBJECTIVE:To summarize the clinical efficacy of transplantation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s in the treatment of bone nonunion of limb fractures.
METHODS:A computer-based search of Foreign Medical Journal Ful-Text Service and CNKI databases was performed for articles related to bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s for treatment of bone nonunion of limb fractures published from 1998 to 2014 using the keywords of“bone marrow stem cel s (BMSCs), stem cel transplantation (SCT), nonunions, tissue engineering”in English and Chinese, respectively. Literatures with repetitive content and lack of originality were excluded. A total of 36 literatures were obtained for further analysis. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s are transplanted into the end of bone nonunion, and then can be induced to differentiate into osteoblasts to repair bone nonunion and bone defects,
laying a theoretical basis for clinical application. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s can repair bone defects, which provides an effective method and material to promote fracture healing. Transplantation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s is safe and effective for treatment of bone nonunion of limb fracture.
