BACKGROUND: The degradation speed of biological materials is critical for the clinical use of guided bone regeneration.The partial biological characteristics and treatment efficacy of concentrate growth factor (CGF) fibrin have been explored preliminarily, but its degradation properties have not yet been reported.OBJECTIVE: To explore the degradation properties of CGF fibrin and platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) in artificial saliva and compare the degradation speed of these two biological products.METHODS: Ten volunteers were selected, and 18 mL of venous blood from each volunteer was extracted and stored in two vacuum blood collectors. The blood samples were then placed into the drum of the Medifuge centrifugal acceleration machine, to separate CGF fibrin and PRF specimens following the preparation process, respectively. Both CGF fibrin and PRF specimens were respectively made into bulk and membranoid, and were then immersed in artificial saliva under 37 ℃. The mass of the bulk specimens and area of the membranoid specimens were measured regularly, and the degradation processes of CGF and PRF were recorded. The degradation curves were drawn to compare the degradation speed of CGF fibrin and PRF.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The mass of CGF fibrin and PRF showed no significant difference at the 5th day (P >0.05), while the mass of CGF fibrin was higher than that of PRF at the 3rd, 4th and 6th days (P < 0.05). The residual area of CRF was significantly larger than that of PRF at posttreatment 1-6 days (P < 0.05). To conclude, the degradation speed of bulk or membranoid CRF is slow than that of PRF in artificial saliva. The higher the fibrin content is, the slower the degradation ability is, indicating the strong bioreproductive function.

Objective:To evaluate the surgical effect of repairing soft tissue defect of hand and foot with medial gastrocnemius fascia flap combined with skin graft.Methods:From January, 2018 to June, 2019, 10 patients were treated with transfers of free medial gastrocnemius fascia flaps combined with skin graft to repair soft tissue defect of hand and foot. The size of free fascial flap was 5.0 cm×8.0 cm-12.0 cm×15.0 cm. After successful transfer on the wound, the skin was grafted onto the fascial flap, and the donor site was sutured directly. The appearance and function of the recipient and donor sites were observed and the effect of the operation was evaluated. Sensory recovery was assessed by the standard set by British Medical Research Council (BMRC) at the last follow-up.Results:All the free medial gastrocnemius fascia flap survived. After 6-10 days of granulation tissue growing, the skin grafts were transferred and all survived. All patients entered follow-up for 3-9 months, with an average of 7.5 months. The tissue at the recipient sites were soft and wear-resistant without swelling or ulceration. According to the self-designed evaluation system of soft tissue defect reconstruction, 10 patients had score from 68 to 92 (average, 75.2) . At the last follow-up, sensory recovery was assessed by BMRC, 7 cases were excellent and 3 cases were good.Conclusion:The repair of hand and foot soft tissue defect by the free medial gastrocnemius fascia flap combined with skin graft has advantages in constancy of vascular anatomy of free fascia tissue, long vascular pedicle and for repair of various types of hand and foot defects. Skin of the recipient area is soft with good appearance without swelling after the reconstruction of fascia flap. It is a method of treatment in repair of soft tissue defect of hand and foot by avoiding the thinning of a flap in the second procedure.
