OBJECTIVETo compare the composite grafts of acellular dermal matrix (ADM) from different sources with autoskin.
METHODSSix local white mini pigs were employed for the experiment. The pigs were randomly divided into four groups according to different skin grafts, i.e. A (human ADM with razor thin autoskin), B (porcine ADM with razor thin autoskin), C (razor thin autoskin only), and D (split thickness autoskin) as control. The survival rate, the contraction degree of the grafts, and the histological changes in grafting area were observed at 2, 4, 8, 12 and 24 hours after the operation.
RESULTSThe grafted area in both A and B groups appeared smooth and elastic with satisfactory graft survival. The in growth of the host reparative cells such as fibroblast and vascular endothelium could be induced by composite grafts of different ADMs with skin grafting. The contraction areas in A and B groups seemed bigger than those in C and D groups. The tissue structure of grafting areas was similar to that of split thickness skin grafting area at 24 post-operation weeks.
CONCLUSIONCombination of the homogenous and heterogeneous ADMs with autografts exhibited similar biological function during the observation period (24 weeks after operation). Xenogenous ADMs might have broader clinical applications.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the efficacy of autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantatation in children with advanced solid tumors.
METHODSBone marrow was collected from the anterior crista of iliac in both sides in 13 cases while peripheral mononuclear cell was harvested with CS-3000 cell separator in other 15 patients after G-CSF mobilization. Since one of them was suspected to have bone marrow involvement of the neuroblastoma cells, the autograft was purged with CliniMACS based on the CD34 positive selection. Conditioning regimen was CBV protocol (cyclophosphamide + bischloro-nitrosourea, i.e., BCNU + etopside) in two children with Hodgkin's disease and etopside plus carboplatin plus melphalan in others.
RESULTSThe number of mononuclear cells collected from bone marrow or peripheral blood was equal to (5.4 +/- 2.1) x 10(8)/kg and (4.1 +/- 1.9) x 10(8)/kg, respectively. Hematopoietic reconstitution was achieved in all patients. Mean time of the neutrophil count recovery to 0.5 x 10(9)/L and mean time of platelet recovery over 2.0 x 10(9)/L were 11.8 +/- 5.7 and 21.0 +/- 9.3 days, respectively. Three units of packed red blood cells and three units of platelet products were transfused in the course of transplantation on average. A total of 12 children developed neutropenic fever and 3 of them had positive blood culture, including staphylococcus epidermal, staphylococcus saprophyte and bacillus subtilis. None of the children died of transplantation-associated complication. One child developed acute renal failure, pulmonary edema and pericardial effusion followed by respiratory distress syndrome. Mechanical ventilation and pulmonary surfactant were used and the patient recovered at last. Another patient developed BCNU associated pulmonary injury, severe pulmonary hypertension and eosinophilosis and recovered after treatment. The mean follow up time was 13 months. Among the 27 children, five died of relapse 5 months after transplantation, and one case of NHL had CNS involvement 3 months after transplantation but has got 17 months of survival till now. The remaining twenty one children were in status of disease-free survival.
CONCLUSIONAutologous stem cell transplantation might be effective in the treatment advanced solid tumors in children.

In order to explore the security and feasibility of double autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (APBSCT) for treatment of multiple myeloma, a 49 years old female patient with multiple myeloma was therapied with double APBSCT. The first peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) mobilization regimen included CTX 2 g/m(2) x 1d and G-CSF [10 microg/(kgxd)] x 5 d. The conditioning regimen was given melphalan 200 mg/m(2). The transplanted number of mononuclear cells was 6.1 x 10(8)/kg and that of CD34(+) cells was 4.7 x 10(6)/kg. The second APBSCT was performed six months later. PBSC mobilization regimen was G-CSF [10 microg/(kgxd)] x 5 d. The conditioning regimen was melphalan 200 mg/m(2). The transplanted number of mononuclear cells was 10.2 x 10(8)/kg and that of CD34(+) cells was 5.9 x 10(6)/kg. The results showed that the absolute neutrophil count (ANC) rose to above 0.5 x 10(9)/L on day 17 and platelet count exceeded 20 x 10(9)/L on day 15 after first transplantation. After second transplantation ANC rose to above 0.5 x 10(9)/L on day 22 and platelet count exceeded 20 x 10(9)/L on day 13. There were neither obvious adverse reaction nor severe complication during the double transplantations. The patient's ostealgia and anemia were healed through above therapy. In the follow-up of 7 months, the patient's general status was good and she remained in complete remission phase. It is concluded that double APBSCT is safe, effective and feasible for the treatment of multiple myeloma.

In this study the treatment effect of combined implantation of autologous skin on pig dermis in injured rats was observed. Twenty-one Wistar rats were used, and the wounds were formed by excising a piece of full thickness skin on the back. After the pig dermis was implanted, the autologous skin was grafted on the dermis at 0.7 and 10 days. In the group with perforated pig dermis, the autograft skin was implanted on the day when the pig dermis was implanted. The healing effect was evaluated by measuring wound area, and by observing the growth of the autograft skin. Two weeks after the autograft skin was implanted, the skin securely adhered to the dermis, and the edge of autograft skin expanded clearly. The wound of the autograft skin implanted in the perforation of the dermis healed completely after 3 weeks, but the other 3 groups had remnant small wound. The autograft skin merged with the dermis and its surrounding tissue, but a clear dividing line still existed between autograft skin and dermis after implantation. The area of the implanted dermis and autograft skin varied from 51.8% to 65.9% compared to its original size. The results suggested that the time and the way of autologous skin grafting on xenogenous dermis may influence wound contraction and healing time.

OBJECTIVETo explore the feasibility of transplantation of frozen autogenous mandible with delayed implantation.
METHODSOperations were performed to create two defects in the bilateral mandible of 16 dogs. The left defect was grafted by composite transplantation of frozen autogenous mandible (immersed in -196 degrees C liquid nitrogen) with fresh cancellous ilium (composite transplantation group, CTG). The right defect was grafted by fresh ilium (iliac transplantation group, ITG). Three months after transplantation one IMZ TPS dental implant was placed into the graft of each side. At 3, 6, 9, 12 weeks postoperatively, 4 animals were sacrificed respectively and the grafts with dental implant were harvested for gross observation, X-Ray examination and histological evaluation to compare peri-implant bone healing between composite transplantation group and iliac transplantation group.
RESULTSThere was no absorbing bone density reducing image of peri-implant at each stage. The quantified X-Ray gray extent displayed obvious variation of interfacial bone density between two kinds of grafts at 3 weeks, 6 weeks and 9 weeks after implantation. The composite transplantation group obviously surpassed the iliac transplantation group. At 12 weeks after the implantation, there was no significant difference between the peri-implant bones of both sides. There was satisfactory osseointegration between the implants and the two kinds of grafts. The healing style of peri-implant bone was similar.
CONCLUSIONSGood osseointegration was performed between the implant and the composite transplantation of frozen autogenous mandible following delayed implantation.

OBJECTIVE:
To explore the technique of autogenous bone graft combined with plate fixation in total knee arthroplasty(TKA) with severe proximal medial tibial bone defect.
METHODS:
From March 2012 to October 2018, 21 patients (9 males and 12 females) with severe bone defects in the proximal medial tibia during primary total knee arthroplasty were treated with autogenous structural bone grafting and steel plate fixation, with an age of 61 to 77 years old with an average of (69.6±9.1) years and a course of 64 to 257 months with an average of (73.6±170.7) months. According to Rand classification, there were 13 cases of type Ⅲb and 8 cases of type Ⅳb. Postoperative complications were observed, and knee joint function was evaluated by the Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) score and SF-36 quality of life score.
RESULTS:
All 21 patients were followed up for 37 to 64 months with an average of (49.5±13.7) months. The incisions of all patients healed smoothly, and 2 patients developed lower limb intermuscular venous plexus thrombosis after operation. There were no periprosthetic infection, loosening of prosthesis and other complications. The autogenous bone grafts of all patients achieved bony healing during postoperative X-ray follow-up, and the healing time was 8 to 13 months with an average of (10.1±2.3) months. The HSS score of patients increased significantly from 30 to 48 with an average of (53.4±4.2) before operation to 75 to 92 with an average of (81.2±8.4) at the final follow-up (P<0.05). The SF-36 quality of life score of patients after operation was significantly different from that before operation (P<0.05).
CONCLUSION
The technique of autogenous bone graft combined with steel plate fixation can achieve satisfactory osseointegration effect in the treatment of severe proximal tibial bone defects in primary knee arthroplasty, with less complications and obvious improvement in knee function.
