RECENT ADVANCES
PRESENTATION BY:
DR .SANDEEP SARAF
ASSISTANT PROFESSOR IN ORTHOPAEDICS
GIMSR
2. • Fracture is defined as a
– break in the continuity of bone
– results in loss of its mechanical stability
– partial destruction of blood supply.
• But following fracture a scar is not formed,
instead a bone has formed
• bone healing the appropriate nomenclature
would be BONE REGENERATION
2
What is Fracture?
3. There are 3 major phases with sub divisions:
• Reactive Phase
– Fracture and inflammatory phase
– Stage of hematoma formation
– Granulation tissue formation.
• Reparative Phase:
– Cartilage Callus formation.
– Lamellar bone deposition.
• Remodeling Phase:
– Remodeling to original bone contour.
4
STAGES OF FRACTURE HEALING
4.
5. • Clinical union
– occurs when progressively increasing stiffness and
strength provided by the mineralization process
makes the fracture site stable and pain free.
• Radiographic union
– present when plain radiographs show bone
trabeculae or cortical bone crossing the fracture
site.
• Radioisotope studies have shown increased
activity in fracture sites long after painless
function has been restored and radiographic
union is present, indicating that the remodeling
process continues for years.

LOCAL FACTORS
9. • MESSENGER SUBSTANCE:
CYTOKINES-
IL-1,4,6,11, macrophage and granulocyte/macrophage
stimulate bone resorption.
IL-1 ,6 synthesis is decreased by estrogen
PROSTAGLANDINS-
Stimulate osteoblastic bone formation and inhibit activity
of isolated osteoclasts.
LEUKOTRINES-
Stimulate osteoblastic bone formation and enhance the
capacity of isolated osteoclasts to form resorption pits.
11
10. GROWTH FACTORS
A.Transforming growth factor(TGF):
-Act on serine/threonine kinase cell wall receptors
- Promotes proliferation and differentiation of osteoblasts,
osteoclasts and chondrocytes
- Stimulates both endochondral and intramembranous
bone formation and collagen type 2 synthesis.
B.Fibroblast growth factors(FGF):
-Increase proliferation of chondrocytes and osteoblasts
-Enhance callus formation & stimulates angiogenesis.
12
11. C.Platelet derived growth
factor(PDGF):
•Stimulates bone cell growth
•Increases type I collagen synthesis by
increasing the number of osteoblasts.
•PDGF-B stimulates bone resorption.
D.Insulin like growth factor(ILGF):
•Stimulates bone collagen & matrix synthesis and
replicates osteoblasts .
•It also inhibits collagen degradation.
13
12. • E.Bone Morphogenic Proteins (BMP):
BMP are Osteoinductive proteins initially isolated from
demineralized bone matrix.
•FUNCTIONS:
–Induce cell differentiation : BMP 3(osteogenin).
–Promote endochondral ossification: BMP 2 & 7.
–Regulate extracellular matrix production :BMP1.
–Increase fusion rates in Spinal fusions (anterior lumbar
interbody fusion): BMP 2
–Non unions: BMP 7 as good as bone grafting .
14
13. • 3.PERMEABILITY FACTORS:
-Protease – Plasmin , Kalikrein, Globulin permeability
factor.
-Polypeptides –leucotaxime, Bradykinin, Kallidin
-Amines – Adrenalin, nor-adrenalin, Histamine.
These factors work in ways that :
– Increase capillary permeability
– Alteration in diffusion mechanism in intracellular
matrix
– Cellular migration
– Proliferation & differentiation
– New blood vessel formation
– Matrix synthesis
– Growth & development.

3.VASCULAR FACTORS
•A. Metalloproteinases:
–Degrade cartilage and bones to allow invasion
of vessels
•B Angiogenic factors:
-Vascular-endothelial growth factors mediate neo-
angiogenesis & endothelial-cell specific mitogens.
•C. Angiopoietin (І & ІІ)
–Regulate formation of larger vessels and branches.
15. A.Age:
Young patients heal rapidly and have a remarkable ability
to remodel V/S old .
B.Nutrition:
An adequate metabolic stage with sufficient carbohydrates
and protein is necessary.
C.Systemic Diseases:
an immunocompromised state will likely delay healing.
Illnesses like Marfan’s syndrome and Ehlers-Danlos
syndrome cause abnormal musculoskeletal healing.
17
4.SYSTEMIC FACTORS
16. D.HORMONES:
– Estrogen
• Stimulates fracture healing through receptor mediated
mechanism.
– Thyroid hormones
• stimulate osteoclastic bone resorption.
– Glucocorticoids
• increased osteoclastic bone resorption.
– Parathyroid Hormone
• Accelerates callus formation (+osteoprogenitor cells) with
enhanced remodeling & biomechanical properties of healing #
– Growth Hormone
• Increases callus formation and fracture strength
18
17. • In vitro bone deformation produces
piezoelectric currents and streaming
potentials.
• Electromagnetic (EM) devices are based on
Wolff’s Law that bone responds to
mechanical stress: Exogenous EM fields may
simulate mechanical loading and stimulate
bone growth and repair
• TYPES ARE :
– Ultrasound.
– Direct electrical current.
– Pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMF).
5.ELECTROMAGNETIC FACTORS
18. A.Ultrasound therapy:
• Modulates signal transduction,
increases gene expression
(aggrecan ), increases blood flow,
enhances bone remodeling and
increases callus torsional strength
in animal models.
• Low-intensity ultrasound is
approved by the FDA for stimulating
healing of fresh fractures.
19. • Direct Electrical
current:
– Electric stimulation of
bone has been taught
to be an effective and
non invasive method
for fracture healing
and treating fracture
non union. Studies
shows that electric
field generated helps
in proliferation of bone
cells.
20. 22
C. Pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMF).
• Approved for the
treatment of non-unions
• Efficacy of bone
stimulation appears to be
frequency dependant
– are most effective (15 to 30 Hz
range)
21. Intertrochanteric hip fractures are
common injuries in the elderly.
Options include extramedullary
and intramedullary implants.
In unstable fracture patterns,
intramedullary devices appear to
have a biomechanical advantage
,lowering the forces imposed on
the implant due to the shorter
lever arm of the fixation.
RECENT ADVANCES
22. PROXIMAL FEMORAL NAIL
Intramedullary nails with two lag
screws were designed to improve
rotational control and bony
purchase within the femoral head,
thus resisting cutout and
subsequent fixation failure.
23. The two lag screw
design led to the
recognition of a new
failure pattern—the
Z-effect
24.
25. TRIGEN
INTERTAN
Low risk of implant failure and non union.
Faster time to union
Eliminates Z effect
Intertrochanteric rotational stability.
Eliminates medial migration
Prevents periprosthetic fracture.
27. Large surface and
increasing core diameter
guarantee maximum
compaction and optimal
hold in osteoporotic bone .
Inserting the PFNA-II blade
compacts the cancellous bone
providing additional
anchoring and rotational
stability.
Higher cut outresistance.
28. Elastic Nail
System.
Indications in Pediatrics
•Diaphyseal and certain metaphyseal/-
•Pathological fractures
•Epiphyseal fractures (Salter Harris I and
II), including radial neck,
•Subcapital humerus,
•Metatarsal and metacarpal fractures –
•Complex clavicular fractures

•The osteosynthesis of clavicle
• Forearm and
•Humerus fractures.
29. The elastic flexible nails
are bent and inserted
into the medullary
symmetric Bracing action of two elastic nails having same
modulus of elasticity; which causes three point fixation & gives
rotational, Axial, Translational and Bending Stability
30. EXPERT TIBIAL

implant
Made of titanium alloy (TAN) for improved
mechanical and fatigue resistance
properties Depending on the anatomical
situation, nail lengths between 255 mm
and 465 mm are available in 15 mm steps
31. Multidirectional interlocking
screws ensure that alignment can
be well maintained and stability
preserved in short proximal or
distal tibial segments
The end cap achieves angular
stability between the proximal
oblique screw and the nail.
32. MULTILOC NAILING

39. Coating intramedullay nails with nanoparticles containing both
antibiotic & growth factors have the following benefits:
1. Local & precise delivery of microbe susceptible antibiotic with a long
& controllable rate of release for successful eradication of pathogens.
2. Local administration of rh BMP & IGI1 for osteogenesis.
3. Augmentation of the vascular supply of new healthy bone.
4. Maintaining the stability & immobilization of operated bone.
40. The authors suggest the placement of > two
layer of polymer. The superficial layer
contains antibiotics nanoparticles & the
deep layer contains nanoparticles of
growth factors.
These nanoparticles are attached to various
different polymeric material such as poly
(D,L – lactide).
41. Composite verses
metalic
intradmedullary nailing
High rigidity of Ti alloys causes the nail to bear majority of the
load (70-74% in stance phase & 91% in phase).
This leads to stress shielding of the bone
A hybrid composite of carbon fiber/flax / epoxy was used for
Intramedullary & it’s mechanical performance was assessed.
The study showed that the composite material reduces the
negative effects of stress shielding.
42. Conventional manual locking
Trial & error

using 4- DOF laser – guiding robot.
43. DRUG ELUTING HEPARINIZED TITANIUM
NAILS
The surface of prsitine Ti – implants is functionalized with
heparin.
Gentamicin sulphate (Gs) and or BMP -2 is then sequentially
immoblized to the heparinized Ti surface.
44. THE TELEMERIZED
NAIL:
Measurement of force & moments acting across the fracture site.
Immediately after fixation – weight is borne by the nail.
As the fracture unites – load is shared by the bone and the nail.
Investigates the implant loading in vivo
Influence of posture & physiotherapy
Load changes due to fracture consolidation
45. INTRAMEDULLARY BONE STENT
Can be made from alloys like SS orshape
memory alloys (e.g. Nitinol)
Inserted into the medullary canal to reduce the
fracture & cause proper alignment
Radial expansion exerts a circumferential stress at
the fracture site, whereas longitudinal contraction
restores the fracture.
46. ADVANTAGES
Has a modulus of elasticity closer tobone
Super elastic property of Nitinol allows it to be deployed in a
compressed state, which can then easily expand & drastically
change its shape & configuration.
Has a titanium based oxide layer that is resistance to corrosion.
The “Spring – like” structure of the stent causes vibration,
which can positively affect the bone density, remodeling,
healing and therefore stimulate rapid bone degeneration.

48. •Bone Marrow Aspirate
•bone marrow contains mesenchymal stem cells and circulating
progenitors
•Mesenchymal stem cells can differentiate into osteoblasts,
chondrocytes, and other connective tissue cells in vitro under
appropriate conditions.
•circulating endothelial progenitors that can contribute to
adult vasculogenesis.
•some of the effects of bone marrow aspirate on fracture healing
could be due to the local application of osteochondrogenic cells
and/or endothelial progenitor cells during bone healing.
49. • Laser Photobiomodulation on Bone
– Laser Phototherapy (LPT) is an effective tool to
stimulate bone.
– results show that the use of IR laser results on
increased bone neo-formation.
– LPT effect depends not only on the total dose, but
also on both irradiation time and mode.
– Energy density and intensity are biologically
independent and accounts for the success and the
failure of the treatment.
50. Percutaneous vertebroplasty:
–
–
–
–
– Vertebroplasty is a minimally invasive, image-guided
therapy used to relieve pain from a vertebral body fracture.
It has been used for osteoporotic or malignant fractures.
Vertebroplasty can increase patient mobility, decrease
narcotic needs, and prevent further vertebral collapse.
Percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) usually involves
percutaneous injection of a cement, polymethylmethacrylate
(PMMA), into the vertebral bodies.
Occasionally, PMMA has been placed manually into vertebral
lesions during open surgical operations.

fracture healing and increases the mechanical strength of callus during
late fracture healing
Injecting platelet rich plasma at fracture site helps in fracture healing .
• TISSUE ENGINEERING, STEM CELLS AND GENE
THERAPIES
In past decade tissue culture and stem cells have
been implicated in enhancing fracture healing and articular
cartilage regeneration.
