RESUMEN
OBJECTIVES: Lateral compression type II pelvic ring injuries can be treated with fixation through open or percutaneous approaches depending on the injury pattern and available osseous fixation pathways. The start site of iliosacral screws to stabilize these injuries should be on the unstable posterior iliac fragment; however, our understanding of start sites for iliosacral screws has not been developed. The purpose of this study is to provide an analysis of iliosacral screw start sites on the posterior ilium to help guide treatment of pelvic ring injuries. METHODS: One-hundred and seventeen consecutive patients at an academic level I trauma center with pelvic ring injuries who underwent surgical treatment with iliosacral screws were included in the final analysis. The start sites of iliosacral screws with confirmed intraosseous placement on a postoperative computed tomography were mapped on the posterior ilium and analyzed according to the sacral segment and type of iliosacral screw. RESULTS: One-hundred and seventeen patients were included in the final analysis. Of the total of 272 iliosacral screw insertion sites analyzed, 145 (53%) were sacroiliac-style screws and 127 (47%) were transsacral screws. The insertion sites for sacroiliac-style screws and transsacral screws at different sacral segment levels can vary but have predictable regions on the posterior ilium relative to reliable osseous landmarks. CONCLUSIONS: Iliosacral screws start sites on the posterior ilium have reliable regions that can be used to plan posterior fixation of pelvic ring injuries.

INTRODUCTION: When needed operative treatment of sacral fractures is mostly performed with percutaneous iliosacral screw fixation. The advantage of navigation in insertion of pedicle screws already could be shown by former investigations. The aim of this investigation was now to analyze which influence iliosacral screw placement guided by navigation has on duration of surgery, radiation exposure and accuracy of screw placement compared to the technique guided by fluoroscopy. METHODS: 68 Consecutive patients with sacral fractures who have been treated by iliosacral screws were inclouded. Overall, 85 screws have been implanted in these patients. Beside of demographic data the duration of surgery, duration of radiation, dose of radiation and accuracy of screw placement were analyzed. RESULTS: When iliosacral screw placement was guided by navigation instead of fluoroscopy the dose of radiation per inserted screw (155.0 cGy*cm2 vs. 469.4 cGy*cm2 p < 0.0001) as well as the duration of radiation use (84.8 s vs. 147.5 s p < 0.0001) were significantly lower. The use of navigation lead to a significant reduction of duration of surgery (39.0 min vs. 60.1 min p < 0.01). The placement of the screws showed a significantly higher accuracy when performed by navigation (0 misplaced screws vs 6 misplaced screws-p < 0.0001). CONCLUSION: Based on these results minimal invasive iliosacral screw placement guided by navigation seems to be a safe procedure, which leads to a reduced exposure to radiation for the patient and the surgeon, a reduced duration of surgery as well as a higher accuracy of screw placement.

INTRODUCTION: The purpose of this study is to (1) describe a pre-operative planning technique using non-reformatted CT images for insertion of multiple transiliac-transsacral (TI-TS) screws at a single sacral level, (2) define the parameters of a sacral osseous fixation pathway (OFP) that will allow for insertion of two TI-TS screws at a single level, and (3) identify the incidence of sacral OFPs large enough for dual-screw insertion in a representative patient population. METHODS: Retrospective review at a level-1 academic trauma center of a cohort of patients with unstable pelvic injuries treated with two TI-TS screws in the same sacral OFP, and a control cohort of patients without pelvic injuries who had CT scans for other reasons. RESULTS: Thirty-nine patients had two TI-TS screws at S1. Eleven patients, all with dysmorphic osteology, had two TI-TS screws at S2. The average pathway size in the sagittal plane at the level the screws were placed was 17.2 mm in S1 vs 14.4 mm in S2 (p = 0.02). Twenty-one patients (42%) had screws that were intraosseous and 29 (58%) had part of a screw that was juxtaforaminal. No screws were extraosseous. The average OFP size of intraosseous screws was 18.1 mm vs. 15.5 mm for juxtaforaminal screws (p = 0.02). Fourteen millimeters was used as a guide for the lower limit of the OFP for safe dual-screw fixation. Overall, 30% of S1 or S2 pathways were ≥ 14 mm in the control group, with 58% of control patients having at least one of the S1 or S2 pathways ≥ 14 mm. CONCLUSIONS: OFPs ≥ 7.5 mm in the axial plane and 14 mm in the sagittal plane on non-reformatted CT images are large enough for dual-screw fixation at a single sacral level. Overall, 30% of S1 and S2 pathways were ≥ 14 mm and 58% of control patients had an available OFP in at least one sacral level.

INTRODUCTION: There are some situations where pelvic surgeons may want to place iliosacral screws with differing trajectories (Sacroiliac and Sacral styles) but may not be able to because of overlapping trajectories. HYPOTHESIS: Sacroiliac and Sacral style screws can be placed in S1 in select patients by using a preoperative planning technique off the 3D reconstructed surface rendered preoperative CT scan. MATERIALS/METHODS: Retrospective review of all patients receiving iliosacral screws using the described technique. RESULTS: Six patients received iliosacral screws using the described technique. When the preoperative planning technique demonstrated feasibility, all screws were able to be safely placed. DISCUSSION: Placing Sacroiliac and Sacral style screws within S1 may be ideal in some injury patterns. The described technique allows pelvic surgeons facile in iliosacral screw techniques to preoperatively plan for this construct. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: VI; Retrospective case series.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to compare patients with traumatic pelvic ring injuries sustained in road and mountain bicycling accidents to evaluate for differences in injury types and hospital courses. METHODS: A retrospective review of 60 patients presenting with pelvic ring injuries after road (n = 46) and mountain (n = 14) bicycling accidents was performed to compare patient/injury characteristics and hospital course. RESULTS: LC1 injuries were the most common pelvic ring injury (n = 31, 51.7%), 38.7% (n = 12) of which were considered unstable, followed by isolated iliac wing (n = 11, 18.3%), pubic rami (n = 6, 10.0%), and sacral fractures (n = 6, 10.0%). Hospital admission was required for 41 (68.3%) patients. The median hospital LOS was 4 days (IQR 2-9) and 12 (20%) patients received operative treatment. Patients in road versus mountain bicycling accidents were more likely to be older tobacco users and were similar in sex, body mass index, and injury severity score. Road bicycling resulted in more LC1 injuries (58.7% vs 28.6%, p = 0.04), while mountain bicycling resulted in more iliac wing fractures (42.9% vs. 10.9%, p = 0.01). Road cycling injuries required more days in the hospital to clear PT (median difference 2, CI 0-4, p = 0.04) and had longer hospital stays (median difference 2, CI 0-6, p = 0.02) but had no difference in the rate of admission, operative intervention, or discharge to rehabilitation facilities. CONCLUSION: The majority of pelvic ring injuries from road and mountain bicycling accidents were LC1 injuries that were frequently unstable and often required hospital admission and operative fixation.

INTRODUCTION: The supraacetabular (SA) corridor extends from the anterior inferior iliac spine to the posterior ilium and can safely accommodate implants to stabilize pelvic and acetabular fractures. However, quantitative analysis of its dimensions and characteristics have not been thoroughly described. This study seeks to define the dimensions, common constriction points, and any alternative trajectories that would maximize the corridor diameter. METHODS: Computed tomography of 100 male and 100 female hemipelves without osseous trauma were evaluated. The corridor boundaries were determined through manual best-fit analysis. The largest intercortical cylinder within the pathway was created and measured. Alternative trajectories were tested within the SA boundaries to identify another orientation that maximized the diameter of the intercortical cylinder. RESULTS: The traditional SA corridor had a mean diameter of 8.3 mm in men and 6.2 mm in women. This difference in diameter is due to a more S-shaped ilium in women. A larger alternative SA corridor was found that had a less limited path through the ilium and measured 11.3 mm in men and 9.9 mm in women. These dimensions are significantly different compared to those of the traditional SA corridor in both men and women. CONCLUSIONS: In men, the SA corridor allows for the safe passage of most hardware used in pelvic and acetabular fractures. However, in women, the SA corridor is restricted by a more S-shaped ilium. An alternative trajectory was found that has a significantly larger mean diameter in both sexes. Ultimately, the trajectory of hardware will be dictated by the clinical scenario. When large implants are needed, especially in women, we recommend considering the alternative SA corridor.

OBJECTIVE: To determine the influence of plating systems on the clinical outcomes in dogs treated for ilial fractures. DESIGN: Retrospective study. ANIMALS: Fifty-nine dogs (63 hemipelves). METHODS: Radiographs and medical records of dogs with ilial fractures presented to Iowa State University between 2003 and 2019 were reviewed. After fracture reduction, fractures were fixed with a locking plate system (LPS) or non-locking plate system (NLS). Perioperative, long-term complications, and follow-up data were recorded. The frequency of implant failure and pelvic collapse were compared using a logistic and linear regression analysis, respectively. Where the univariate test was statistically significant, a multivariate analysis across categories was performed to identify statistically different categories. RESULTS: LPS and NLS implants were used in 25/63 and 38/63 hemipelves, respectively. Median follow-up time was 8 weeks (3-624 weeks). Implant failure occurred in 18/63 (29%) of fracture repairs, consisting of 17 with NLS and 1 with LPS. Revision surgery was recommended in five cases of implant failure, all with NLS. The probability of implant failure was higher when fractures were fixed with NLS (p = .0056). All other variables evaluated did not seem to influence outcome measures. CONCLUSION: The variable with the most influence on the outcomes of dogs treated for ilial fractures consisted of the fixation method (NLS vs. LPS). Fractures repaired with NLS were nearly 20 times more likely to fail than those repaired with LPS. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Surgeons should consider repairing ilial body fractures in dogs with LPS to reduce the risk of short-term implant failure.

Pelvic avulsion fractures are common in youth athletes; many of these injuries can be treated conservatively. This article reviews the etiology, presentation, and management of the more common pelvic avulsion fractures, including anterior superior iliac spine, anterior inferior iliac spine, ischial tuberosity, and iliac crest avulsions. Adolescent pelvic avulsion fractures rely on the amount of fracture displacement to guide treatment. Conservative management includes rest and avoiding use of the muscle(s) that attach to the avulsed fragment. Operative treatment is reserved for widely displaced fractures or symptomatic nonunions. With appropriate treatment, young athletes frequently return to their same level of sport.

OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the use of intraoperative skeletal traction for the surgical repair of pelvic fractures. Opposition and anchorage points for the application of traction were the same in all cadavers. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Cadavers from 10 adult dogs with a median body weight of 31.9 kg (range: 20-38 kg) were used. The fractures were experimentally created in all dogs to produce an oblique iliac fracture on the left side and a transverse fracture on the right (total of 20 fractures) at the same time. Dogs were positioned on an operating table in lateral recumbency and traction was applied first on the left side and then on the right after changing the position of the animal. Increasing amounts of traction were applied to each fracture and recorded until a distraction length of 2 cm was created between the bone fragments. The Kolmogorov-Smirnov test confirmed normality of the data, and a paired t-test was used to compare traction of the two fracture types. RESULTS: The measurement of traction and distraction of the bone fragments was possible in all fractures. A distraction of at least 2 cm was obtained with a mean peak traction force of 15.4 kg for transverse fractures and 18.6 kg for oblique fractures. CONCLUSION: Intraoperative skeletal traction provides a useful and reliable tool for the reduction in experimental oblique and transverse iliac fractures in dogs. There were strong correlations between body weight and the force required to obtain a distraction length of 2 cm in the fracture line; for oblique fractures, traction was related to the square of body weight, and for transverse fractures, the relationship between weight and required traction was near linear.

PURPOSE: To describe evaluation and physical therapy treatment for an athlete who is male and 13 years old with healing bilateral rectus femoris avulsion fractures. SUMMARY OF KEY POINTS: Fractures of the anterior inferior iliac spine may be linked to poor abdominal stability in soccer athletes who are male and an adolescent. The development and use of an abdominal stability screening tool could be an efficient and effective way to determine fracture risk and guide prevention programs. CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS FOR CLINICAL PRACTICE: Following 8 weeks of conservative physical therapy treatment, the athlete met all goals and returned to pain-free soccer activities without residual impairments. Four months following discharge, he reported full participation in soccer competition without complications. This case illustrates that abdominal weakness is a potential risk factor for anterior inferior iliac spine avulsion fracture. Screening for abdominal weakness and incorporating preventative programs into training regimens is recommended to prevent anterior inferior iliac spine injuries in this population.

Twelve dogs with traumatic hip luxation were selected for surgical intervention with a modified iliofemoral suture technique using an anchor screw to substitute the passage of suture material through a perforated tunnel in the ilium. Six procedures were performed with non-absorbable suture and other six with absorbable suture materials. These cases were evaluated at 15, 30, 60, and 90 days after surgery by performing an ambulation analysis and palpation of the joint. In all cases, there was a return of partial and total limb support in an average of 3 and 19 postoperative, respectively. The fixation strategy of the suture material in the ilium using an anchor screw proved to be efficient with a smaller surgical approach and lesser surgical difficulty, maintaining joint congruence in acute as chronic luxation cases. The use of absorbable and non-absorbable sutures had excellent clinical results, but there was a subjective superiority of the first ones, once 4 dogs of the non-absorbable group presented some discomfort during the postoperative palpation of the joint, 90 days after surgery.(AU)
Doze cães com luxação coxofemoral traumática foram submetidos à intervenção cirúrgica de sutura iliofemoral modificada com uso de parafuso âncora substituindo a passagem de fio através de túnel perfurado no ílio. Seis procedimentos foram realizados com fio não absorvível, e outros seis com fio absorvível. Os casos foram avaliados aos 15, 30, 60 e 90 dias após a cirurgia, por meio de análise de deambulação e palpação articular. Em todos os casos, houve retorno de suporte parcial e total do peso no membro operado, em média, aos três e 19 dias de pós-operatório, respectivamente. A estratégia de fixação do fio de sutura no ílio com parafuso âncora se mostrou eficaz, permitindo uma abordagem cirúrgica menos invasiva, com menor dificuldade na execução, garantindo manutenção da congruência articular tanto em quadros de luxação aguda como crônica. O uso de fio absorvível e não absorvível teve bons resultados clínicos, porém houve uma superioridade subjetiva do primeiro, uma vez que quatro pacientes do grupo fio inabsorvível mostraram desconforto à palpação da articulação aos 90 dias após a cirurgia.(AU)

There have been few reports on fixation of Rommens classification Type IIIA fragility fractures of the pelvis (FFPs). Here, we present our less invasive surgical technique, called iliac intramedullary stabilization (ILIS), for the internal fixation of Type IIIA FFPs. The technique involves a closed reduction, termed the femur internal rotation reduction method (FIRM), whereby the fracture fragments are repositioned using lateral rotators by internally rotating the femur while the patient is in the prone position. Two iliac screws are inserted on the ilium bilaterally via the supra-acetabular bone canal during FIRM and connected with two transverse rods and two cross connectors. We refer to this internal fixation procedure as ILIS. We retrospectively recruited patients with Type IIIA fractures, treated using this procedure, at our institute between October 2017 and October 2019. We evaluated operative and post-operative outcomes. We enrolled 10 patients (9 women and 1 man; mean age, 85.2 years) who were followed up for over 6 months. All patients suffered FFPs after falling from a standing position. The mean operative time was 145.1 (range, 94-217) minutes, and the mean blood loss was 258.5 (range, 100-684) ml. All patients were allowed full weight bearing from post-operative day 1. All patients achieved bone union and regained their pre-injury walking ability at 6 months after surgery without evident secondary displacement. In conclusion, our ILIS technique allows less invasive internal fixation of Type IIIA FFPs with adequate stability for full weight bearing from post-operative day 1.

CASE: A 13-year-old boy with known type I osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) presented with bilateral asynchronous anterior inferior iliac spine (AIIS) apophyseal avulsion fractures 6 weeks apart. Each happened while running. These were successfully treated nonoperatively, and he went on to heal. CONCLUSION: Apophyseal avulsion fractures in patients with OI have been reported in the literature around the elbow and knee; however, to the author's knowledge, this is the first report of an AIIS avulsion fracture in a patient with type I OI. The fractures were treated successfully nonoperatively with activity modification and healed well.

OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to determine the prevalence and spectrum of pathology of the fascia lata attachment at the iliac crest (FLAIC) on MRI in asymptomatic patients in order to refine our diagnostic criteria for clinically relevant FLAIC injury. METHODS AND MATERIAL: Two readers retrospectively evaluated the FLAIC on each side on coronal large field-of-view short tau inversion recovery images on 100 musculoskeletal pelvic MRI exams performed in patients without hip pain (total n = 200). Pathology of the FLAIC was graded using a 3-point Likert scale and discrepancies were resolved by consensus. RESULTS: Of the 200 FLAIC included in the study, 72.5% demonstrated normal size and signal intensity. Low to moderate grade pathology of the FLAIC was identified in 27% and high-grade partial thickness pathology was seen in 0.5%. No cases of complete FLAIC rupture were identified. Inter rater agreement between the two readers was good (k=0.660, p < 0.001). There was no statistical difference in FLAIC scores according to gender or age. FLAIC score was positively correlated with higher body mass index. CONCLUSION: Incidental low to moderate grade FLAIC pathology is commonly seen on MRI in asymptomatic patients. Abnormal MRI findings of the FLAIC should hence be correlated with explicit clinical symptoms and physical exam findings. ADVANCES IN KNOWLEDGE: The Fascia lata is a complex anatomic structure. Its attachment to the iliac crest is an under recognized pathology and sometimes overlooked during evaluation for pelvis and lateral hip pain. Evaluation of the FLAIC is easily done with MRI and abnormality should be correlated to the clinical symptomatology as low grade abnormality is frequently seen in asymptomatic population.

BACKGROUND: Avulsion injuries of the pelvis and hip region are typical injuries in adolescent athletes but can be found in adults as well. Typical sites for avulsion injuries include the origin/insertion of tendons and ligaments. Among adolescents, the not yet ossified apophysis is also frequently involved. The pelvis and hip are especially prone to such injuries due to their complex musculotendinous anatomy. Clinical history and physical examination in combination with the recognition of typical imaging findings are essential for correct diagnosis of these mostly acute, but sometimes also chronic injuries. METHODS: This review article describes typical avulsion injuries of the pelvis and hip and illustrates common radiological findings. Taking current literature into account, there is a special focus on the trauma mechanism, clinical examination, typical imaging findings and clinical management. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Detailed knowledge of musculotendinous anatomy and typical injury mechanisms allows a correct diagnosis of avulsion injuries often only based on clinical examination and radiographic findings. Further imaging with ultrasound and MRI may be necessary to evaluate tendon retraction in non-osseous avulsion injuries and extent of soft-tissue damage. Knowledge of potential complications of acute/chronic injuries can help to avoid unnecessary examinations or invasive interventions. Conservative management of avulsion injuries usually leads to functionally good results. However, in the case of competitive athletes, relatively wide bone fragment dislocation or marked tendon retraction, operative re-fixation may be considered in order to expedite the rehabilitation process. KEY POINTS: · Avulsion injuries are common injuries at the pelvic region especially in adolescent athletes, due to not yet ossified apophysis.. · Excellent anatomical knowledge is essential for proper diagnostic evaluation and predicting the mechanism of injury.. · Imaging plays a crucial role in diagnosing avulsion injuries starting from X-Ray and using MRI and CT for anatomical details by utilizing multiplanar capabilities..

INTRODUCTION: The objective of this study is to report the institutions experiences with standardized 2D computer-navigated percutaneous iliosacral screw placement (CNS), as well as the conventional fluoroscopically assisted screw placement method (CF) over a period of 10 years. PATIENTS AND METHODS: A total of 604 patients with sacral fractures (OTA B and C) were treated at the institution. Cases with both, a preoperative and postoperative CT scan were included for further analysis. With this prerequisite, a total of 136 cases were included. The quality of screw positioning, length of operation and intraoperative radiation exposure were recorded and compared. Moreover, it was analyzed whether the presence of dysmorphic sacra influenced the precision of screw positioning. RESULTS: Two hundred and thirty-two screws were implanted in 136 patients (100 navigated, 36 conventional). The duration of the average procedure was similar in the two groups [49.8 min (p = 0.7) conventional group (CF) vs. 48.0 min computer-navigated (CNS) group]. With computer navigation, radiation exposure was significantly reduced by almost half [128.3 vs. 65.2 s (p = 0.023)]. Screw placement was more accurate in the navigation group (79.03% CF vs. 86.47% CNS). The presence of dysmorphic sacral foramina or an increased alar slope increased the incidence of screw malpositioning. CONCLUSION: The conventional percutaneous method and a standardized 2D navigated method have similar rates of malpositioning. Dysmorphic upper sacral foramina and increased alar slope were identified as risk factors for screw malpositioning. Radiation exposure rates were reduced by half when using computer navigation. Therefore, computer navigation in iliosacral screw placement is recommended as method of choice.

Purpose: The aim of this research is to perform a literature review of the treatments available for the anterior iliac spines avulsion fracture on the young subjects. Material and Methods: We performed a systematic literature search for studies on spines avulsion fractures in young subjects from January 1, 2013, to February 2018; abstracts were screened by a single reviewer. For those studies meeting the eligibility criteria, full-text articles were obtained. Results: From 112 studies found only six articles were included in this systematic review. All the studies belonged to level IV of scientific evidence. 64 patients suffered an anterior inferior iliac spine fracture while patients 36% patients suffered an anterior superior iliac spine fracture. 93.2% underwent conservative treatment and 6.8% underwent surgery. Conclusions: The anterior iliac spine avulsions fractures are rare injuries that occur in young male athletes and the conservative option is the most selected treatment modality.

OBJECTIVE: To compare the clinical effect of 3D-printed template technology with X-ray fluoroscopy in assisting surgery for sacroiliac screws placement. DESIGN: Institutional review board-approved retrospective analysis. PATIENTS: The clinical data of 31 cases of sacroiliac complex injury between January 2015 and December 2016 were analyzed. There were 16 patients, males 11 and females 5, who underwent surgery assisted by 3D-printed template in template group, and that of contemporaneous 15 patients, males 11 and females 4, who underwent traditional surgery were gathered as fluoroscopy group. All those patients were followed up for more than 6 months. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The operation time and X-ray fluoroscopy times for each screw placement, and the Matta and Majeed score were analyzed and the difference between the two group was tested. RESULTS: All cases were followed up for 6-20 months, average 11.4 ± 0.6 months. In template group, 19 screws were implanted. Each screw spent 25-38 min, average 27.2 ± 5.3 min, and need 2-5 times fluoroscopy, average 2.7 ± 0.5. The fracture reduction quality was evaluated by Matta score scale: excellent 10, well 4, fair 2, good rate 87.5%; and pelvic function were evaluated by Majeed score scale: excellent 11, well 3, fair 2, and good rate 87.5%. In fluoroscopy group, 17 screws were implanted. Each screw spent 45-70 min, average 60.3 ± 5.8 min, and needs 11-23 times fluoroscopy, average 15.4 ± 3.5. The fracture reduction quality was evaluated by Matta score scale: excellent 7, well 6, fair 2, and good rate 86.7%; and pelvic function was evaluated by Majeed score scale: excellent 6, well 6, fair 3, and good rate 80.0%. The difference in operation time, X-ray fluoroscopy times between template group and fluoroscopy group had statistical significance. But the Matta and Majeed score had no difference between two groups. CONCLUSION: Compared with traditional surgery, 3D-printed template technology-assisted surgery for sacroiliac screws placement in sacroiliac complex injury patients possesses advantage such as shortened operation time and reduced X-ray exposure times. This technology improves the safety profile of this operation and should be further studied in future clinical applications.

In veterinary medicine, the cell therapy is still unexplored and there are many unanswered questions that researchers tend to extrapolate to humans in an attempt to treat certain injuries. Investigating this subject in nonhuman primates turns out to be an unparalleled opportunity to better understand the dynamics of stem cells against some diseases. Thus, we aimed to compare the efficiency of bone marrow mononuclear cells (BMMCs) and mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) from adipose tissue of Chlorocebus aethiops in induced bone injury. Ten animals were used, male adults subjected, to bone injury the iliac crests. The MSCs were isolated by and cultured. In an autologous manner, the BMMCs were infused in the right iliac crest, and MSCs from adipose tissue in the left iliac crest. After 4.8 months, the right iliac crests fully reconstructed, while left iliac crest continued to have obvious bone defects for up to 5.8 months after cell infusion. The best option for treatment of injuries with bone tissue loss in old world primates is to use autologous MSCs from adipose tissue, suggesting we can extrapolate the results to humans, since there is phylogenetic proximity between species.(AU)
Na medicina veterinária, a terapia celular ainda é inexplorada e há muitas perguntas não respondidas, o que leva os pesquisadores a uma tendência a estender a terapia para os seres humanos, na tentativa de tratar certas lesões. Investigar esse assunto em primatas não humanos revela-se uma oportunidade sem precedentes para compreender melhor a dinâmica das células-tronco contra algumas doenças. Assim, objetivou-se comparar a eficiência das células mononucleares de medula óssea (BMMCs) e das células-tronco mesenquimais (MSCs) do tecido adiposo de Chlorocebus aetiops na lesão óssea induzida. Foram utilizados 10 animais, adultos do sexo masculino, submetidos à lesão óssea nas cristas ilíacas. As MSCs foram isoladas e cultivadas; de forma autóloga, as BMMCs foram infundidas na crista ilíaca direita e as MSCs de tecido adiposo na crista ilíaca esquerda. Após 4,8 meses, a crista ilíaca direita foi totalmente reconstruída, enquanto a crista ilíaca esquerda continuou apresentando defeito ósseo evidente por até 5,8 meses após a infusão. A melhor opção para o tratamento de lesões com perda de tecido ósseo em primatas do Velho Mundo é a utilização de MSCs autólogas de tecido adiposo, sugerindo que se podem estender os resultados para seres humanos, uma vez que há proximidade filogenética entre as espécies.(AU)
