Cartilage Tissue Engineering and Regeneration Techniques
Osteochondral defects can be challenging to treat, first, because the damaged articular cartilage has a poor intrinsic reparative capability, and second, because these defects cause chronic pain and serious disability. That is why cartilage repair remains one of the most challenging issues of musculoskeletal medicine. Arthroscopic and open techniques that have been developed over the last two decades intend to promote the success of complete repair of the articular cartilage defects; nevertheless, these therapies cannot always offer 100% success. Nowadays, cartilage tissue engineering is an emerging technique for the regeneration of cartilage tissue. Taking into consideration these perspectives, this book aims to present a summary of cartilage tissue engineering, including development, recent progress, and major steps taken toward the regeneration of functional cartilage tissue. Special emphasis is placed on the role of stimulating factors, including growth factors, gene therapies, as well as scaffolds, including natural, synthetic, and nanostructured.
Tibia Pathology and Fractures
The tibia is the larger, stronger, and anterior (frontal) of the two bones in the leg, which connects the knee with the ankle bones. The tibia, or shinbone, is the most fractured long bone in the body. In recent years, high-energy accidents result in comminuted tibia fractures or intraarticular fractures of the knee (plateau) or ankle (platform) that need immediate open reduction and internal fixation with anatomical plates or intramedullary nails. Intraarticular fractures with comminution or fractures with non-appropriate internal fixation predispose to post-traumatic knee or ankle arthritis. Conservative current therapies (injections of plate-rich plasma or stems cells) or high tibia osteotomies may delay the need of total knee arthroplasty. Tibia Pathology and Fractures analyzes all the up-to-date internal fixation or other operative or conservative therapies.
Foot and Ankle Disorders - Pathology and Surgery
The number of cases of foot and ankle pathology and disorders has increased in the last two decades due to the way of life of the current human beings. On the one hand, there is the trauma category because of motorbike and car accidents; and on the other hand is the chronic syndromes due to everyday overuse of foot and ankle, as in high-demand sports and hobbies, as also in ballet dancing, etc. This book offers an updated guide to foot and ankle pathology and presents everyday trauma categories, as well as chondral and joint chronic syndromes at all ages from childhood to adulthood. Furthermore, the book will allow the reader to evaluate and realize how the foot changes during development from the early stages to adulthood. It also provides an overall outline of the anatomy and foot biomechanics, diagnosis of the pathologies, open or arthroscopic surgical approaches, treatment alternatives, and complications. Foot and Ankle Disorders - Pathology and Surgery will be of major interest for orthopedic residents, as well as for orthopedic surgeons at the first steps of their career, and for experienced ones seeking updated information.
