BACKGROUND: As a minimally invasive technology, percutaneous vertebroplasty is a safe and effective treatment for osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures.OBJECTIVE: To overview the research progress concerning the biomechanical properties, bone strength maintenance, bone absorption and degradation of bone filling materials used in percutaneous vertebroplasty.METHODS: The first author conducted a computer-based retrieval of CNKI, PubMed and Medline databases for relevant articles published from January 2005 to May 2016. The keywords were bone cement, bone filling materials, percutaneous vertebroplasty in English and Chinese, respectively.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Polymethyl methacrylate is not an ideal material for osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures. Calcium phosphate cement and calcium sulfate cement can replace the traditional polymethyl methacrylate; however, some problems still exist, such as poor effect of venography, incontrollable biological degradation rate, and lack of the evidence-based medicine about its long-term effect. Composite bone cement, as a good bone repair material, holds the advantages of various bone cements. As the composite bone cement has just been introduced in clinical practice, its long-term curative efficacy needs to be further studied.

BACKGROUND:Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) containing high levels of platelet-derived growth factor for knee osteoarthritis has achieved good clinical results;however, the effects of RPR on the repair of damaged articular cartilage are stil controversial.
OBJECTIVE:To study the effects of RPR on the repair of damaged articular cartilage in a rabbit model of knee osteoarthritis.
METHODS:The model of osteoarthritis in the rabbit right knee was established by Hulth’s method. Autologous PRP (0.5 mL) (PRP group), sodium hyaluronate (0.5 mL) (sodium hyaluronate group), and normal saline (model group) were injected into the right knee joint cavity, respectively. The morphology of articular surface and nitric oxide contents in knee joint fluid were observed and determined at 8 weeks after surgery.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The morphology of articular cartilage in the PRP group was better than that in the other three groups. Mankin scores of articular cartilage and nitric oxide contents of knee joint fluid in the PRP group were significantly decreased compared with the model and sodium hyaluronate groups that in (P<0.05), while increased compared with the sham-operation group (P<0.05). Our results suggest that repair effects of PRP on the damaged articular cartilage are superior to sodium hyaluronate treatment.
