RESUMO
INTRODUCTION: Transplantation of cancellous tissue from human femoral heads (FK) is an established method in the reconstruction of bony defects in orthopedic and trauma surgery. Standardized rating systems with respect to the morphological quality of this tissue are not available. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In 91/105 patients who had been a regular, clinically-indicated surgery (arthroplasty of the hip joint) the respective femoral head (FK) was taken under standardized conditions. Using a checklist defined clinical and radiological criteria of FK are judged in terms of their quality (cysts, necrosis, calcification, deformities, osteoporosis) and divided by the Tabea FK score into three classes (best/middle/poor quality). This was followed by a blinded repeated scoring, now as macroscopic assessment of three sawed layers from the same femoral head. The femoral heads are examined by peripheral quantitative computed tomography (pQCT) and a standardized histological examination of the bony tissue. We evaluated the accordance of the Tabea FK score with complementary assessments by calculation of sensitivity and specificity. RESULTS: Femoral heads from 91/105 patients (ages: 68.4⯱ 9.9 , nâ¯= 60 women, nâ¯= 31 men) were explanted and included in the study. The correlation between the primary radiologic clinical score (Tabea FK score) and the macroscopic second review of the sawn FK with respect to middle/best and poor/middle quality was classified as good (sensitivity 77% and 81%, respectively; specificity 76% and 84%, respectively). The correlation of histology and macroscopic second review was worse and in relation to discrimination of middle/best and poor/middle quality had a sensitivity of 85% and 54%, respectively, and a specificity of 66% and 97%, respectively. The pQCT showed a sensitivity of 82% only in discrimination of middle/best, while sensitivity in discrimination of poor/middle and poor/middleâ¯+ best, respectively, was <10%. DISCUSSION: The corresponding correlation between the primary and the second clinical score was evaluated as good. This emphasizes the long-standing skills of operationally active orthopedic surgeons to classify the quality of cancellous bone correctly already on the basis of Xray images and intraoperative findings. In this respect, the introduction of the Tabea FK score as a quality assurance tool in the routines of bone banks can be recommended.

Bone tissue banks are necessary for collection, production, testing, packaging, storage and delivery of bone transplants. Bone tissue bank is a link between the donor and the recipient by which the donation becomes a medium of health improvement for both the donor and the recipient. At the Department of Orthopedics, Mostar University Clinical Hospital, about 200 total hip replacements are performed per year. Most patients undergoing total hip replacement surgery (90%) have been diagnosed with osteoarthritis, and they are suitable donors, having in mind their age and comorbidities. In the same Department, around 50 procedures that require bone transplants are performed per year. A team of highly competent surgeons are working on an intensive process of adaptation oriented to quality improvement and intensification of the activity, both with the goal of meeting the standards of excellence in orthopedic surgery. The presence of a bone tissue bank has a favorable impact on the quality of health care owing to bone transplant availability, as well as on the scientific role of a highly specialized institution that examines the properties of bone tissue.

OBJECTIVES: This study evaluated the stability of implants installed simultaneously and in a delayed manner in fresh frozen onlay allografts in the tibiae of rabbits. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Analyses of the resonance frequency (ISQ) and removal torque were performed. The calvarium of three rabbits was used as donor site. Ten New Zealand female rabbits received four allografts of the same dimensions, two in each tibia. The tibiae were randomly allocated into the following two groups: Group 1, the tibiae that received implants after 84 days of healing, and Group 2, those who received the implants simultaneously with the grafts. Both groups were followed for 126 days. Proximal implants in each group were evaluated by resonance frequency (ISQ) on days 0 and 126, and the distal ones with removal torque on day 126. RESULTS: In both groups, an increase in the ISQ value of day 0-126 was observed, with a statistically significant difference (Group 1 P = 0.049 and Group 2 P = 0.021). When comparing the resonance frequency at day 0 to day 126, and the gain of stability between these days, no statistically significant difference between groups could be observed. The removal torque showed a statistically significant difference between groups 1 and 2 (P = 0.042). CONCLUSION: There was an increase in stability in groups according to the analysis of resonance frequency. Implants installed in a delayed manner in allografts showed higher shear force, according to the removal torque analysis.

Purpose: The number of bone allograft transplantations required in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) is growing very quickly. No previous study has investigated the challenges clinical banks face to sustain operations or meet this demand. The purpose of this study was to conduct a systematic review of the barriers to implementation and sustainability of clinical bone tissue banks in LMICs. Barriers identified in clinical bone banking can shed light on strategies for overcoming obstacles in other biobanking programs. Methods: A systematic review protocol was registered with PROSPERO under identification number CRD42019136045. LMIC was defined using World Bank criteria. A search strategy targeting PubMed, Cumulative Index of Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL), and the World Health Organization (WHO) Global Health Library was used. Studies from the inception of bone banking until June 4, 2019, that discussed an identifiable barrier to bone banking were included. Study quality was assessed using The Critical Appraisals Skills Programme (CASP) Qualitative Checklist. Results: Of studies identified, 33 studies were included in the final analysis. Based on the full-text review, the primary barriers identified were lack of regulation, low donor rates, and insufficient training and staffing. CASP analysis performed on the 24 qualitative articles showed an average of 3.6 qualitative measurements met. Conclusions: As international organizations such as the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) restructure their participation in global bone banking regulation, these barriers such as lack of regulation, low donor rates, and insufficient training and staffing could pose a challenge to meeting the rising demand for bone transplantation in LMICs. Articles with higher quality evidence are needed to better define barriers and propose evidence-based solutions.

The donation of bone and tendon tissues is an important source of biological material used in several surgical techniques. The removal of such tissues generates an important aesthetic sequel in the donor that requires limb reconstruction before returning the corpse to the relatives. The technique used by the Banco de Ossos do Paraná (Bone Bank from Paraná), Brazil, employs metal rebar, silicone tubes and nylon clamps to rebuild the limbs, it is easy to perform and has satisfactory aesthetic results.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: This study compared stability, removal torque, bone implant contact (BIC) and area (BA) of implants installed simultaneously with onlay autografts or allografts in rabbits' tibias. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Total of 18 rabbits were used in this study. Fresh frozen allografts were obtained from six animals at T(-6). Two implants with autogenous grafts (Group 1) or allografts (Group 2) were simultaneously inserted into both sides of the tibiae in a vertical periimplant defect model at T0. The resonance frequency (ISQ) was measured in implant proximal epiphysis on the day of installation of T0 and T18 (18 weeks post-surgery). At T18 the removal torque was assessed at the distal implants, the implants' proximal epiphysis and surrounding bone were harvested to perform histomorphometric analysis. The BIC and BA within the limits of the implants threads were evaluated. RESULTS: The ISQ revealed a statistically significant difference between T0 and T18 in each group (p = 0.024, p = 0.003). The removal torque indicates that there was no significant difference between the two groups (p = 0.47). No significant differences were observed between the groups regarding both BIC (p = 0.3713) and the BA (p = 0.3883). CONCLUSION: Both grafts and implants demonstrated the same stability, torque removal and the BIC and BA.

OBJECTIVE: To conduct an epidemiological analysis on the main microbiological markers in bone tissue that was processed at the musculoskeletal tissue bank of Hospital São Vicente de Paulo, in Passo Fundo, between August 2007 and October 2011. METHODS: Between August 2007 and October 2011, 202 musculoskeletal tissue samples were collected for the tissue bank. Among these, 159 samples were from living donor patients and 43 were from cadaver donors. The following serological tests were requested: hepatitis B, hepatitis C, syphilis, cytomegalovirus, Chagas disease, toxoplasmosis, HIV and HTLV. RESULTS: Among the 159 living donors, 103 (64.75%) were men and 56 (35.25%) were women. The patients' mean age was 59.35 ± 8.87 years. Out of this total, 76 tissue samples (47.8%) from donors were rejected. There was no difference in the number of rejections in relation to sex (p = 0.135) or age (p = 0.523). The main cause of rejection was serologically positive findings for the hepatitis B virus, which was responsible for 48 rejections (63.15%). Among the 43 cadaver donors, the mean age was 37.84 ± 10.32 years. Of these, 27 (62.8%) were men and 16 (37.2%) were women. Six of the samples collected from cadaver donors were rejected (13.9%), and the main cause of rejection was serologically positive findings for the hepatitis C virus, which was responsible for three cases (50%). There was no significant difference in the number of rejections in relation to sex (p = 0.21) or age (p = 0.252). CONCLUSION: There were a greater number of rejections of tissues from living donors (47.8%) than from cadaver donors (13.9%). Among the living donors, the main cause of rejection was the presence of serologically positive findings of the hepatitis B virus, while among the cadaver donors, it was due to the hepatitis C virus.

Não houve diferença significativa no número de descartes em relação a sexo (p = 0,21) ou idade (p = 252). CONCLUSÃO: houve um número maior de descarte de tecidos de doadores (47,8%) em comparação com os cadáveres (13,9%). Nos doadores, a principal causa de descarte foi a presença de sorologia positiva para o vírus da hepatite B; nos cadáveres, para o vírus da hepatite C.
RESUMO
Bone replacement materials have been widely used to reconstruct atrophic jawbones. Based on previous reports demonstrating the presence of viable cells in bone blocks even after processing by musculoskeletal tissue banks for orthopedic use, the aim of this study was to evaluate the presence of cells in bone blocks from three Brazilian tissue banks for maxillary reconstructions. All samples were processed by the respective tissue banks, according to the guidelines of the Brazilian National Sanitary Surveillance Agency. Three samples were removed from each block for subsequent histological processing and stained using hematoxylin & eosin. Further evaluation included section staining by the Feulgen method and ultrastructural analysis using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Light microscopy images from all bone samples showed presence of osteocyte-like cells in all groups and intense Feulgen staining, demonstrating presence of DNA in bone even after tissue processing. The ultrastructural analysis showed red blood cells in lacunae within the bone tissue. In conclusion, despite bone tissue processing by the musculoskeletal tissue banks, cells may be found within the bone used for allogeneic grafts.
Resumo Substitutos ósseos têm sido amplamente utilizados para reconstrução de ossos maxilares atróficos. Uma vez que relatos anteriores demonstram a existência de células viáveis em blocos ósseos após processamento pelos bancos de tecidos músculo-esqueléticos para uso ortopédico, o objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a presença de células provenientes de três bancos de tecidos músculo-esqueléticos do Brasil. Todas as amostras foram processadas pelos respectivos bancos seguindo as normas da Agência Nacional de Vigilância Sanitária brasileira. Foi realizada a retirada de 3 amostras de cada bloco, que foram destinadas para processamento histológico e subsequente coloração por hematoxilina e eosina e Feugen e análise ultra-estrutural através de microscopia eletrônica de varredura (MEV). As imagens de microscopia de luz de todos os fragmentos de enxertos ósseos mostraram presença de células do tipo osteócito em todos os grupos avaliados, bem como intensa coloração por Feulgen, demonstrando a presença de DNA nos ossos mesmo após o processamento realizado. As análises ultraestruturais evidenciaram a presença de hemácias nas lacunas do tecido ósseo. Conclui-se que mesmo após os processamentos realizados pelos bancos de tecidos músculo-esqueléticos é possível encontrar células nos ossos utilizados para enxertia alógena.

Bone banks are necessary for providing biological material for a series of orthopedic procedures. The growing need for musculoskeletal tissues for transplantation has been due to the development of new surgical techniques, and this has led to a situation in which a variety of hospital services have been willing to have their own source of tissue for transplantation. To increase the safety of transplanted tissues, standards for bone bank operation have been imposed by the government, which has limited the number of authorized institutions. The good performance in a bone bank depends on strict control over all stages, including: formation of well-trained harvesting teams; donor selection; conducting various tests on the tissues obtained; and strict control over the processing techniques used. Combination of these factors enables greater scope of use and numbers of recipient patients, while the incidence of tissue contamination becomes statistically insignificant, and there is traceability between donors and recipients. This paper describes technical considerations relating to how a bone bank functions, the use of grafts and orthopedic applications, the ethical issues and the main obstacles encountered.

The use of bone grafts is a common practice in musculoskeletal surgery to provide mechanical stability where there is a defect and it allows skeletal reconstruction. Classically auto and allografts have been used. The latter are the choice in large, complex defects. Allografts can be transplanted despite cell death, have osteoconduction and osteoinduction capacity, low antigenicity and biomechanica lproperties similar to the original bone. They can be obtained from living and death donors. They are stored by cryopreservation and lyophilization in entities called bone banks. This is a review about bone allografts and the organization and function of the bone banks.

Assess the control of suppuration after revision surgery with mastoid obliteration for chronic otitis media (COM) with cholesteatoma using particulated frozen allograft bone (PFAB). Study Design: Exploratory, prospective, case series. Patients: Ten adults were selected from among patients who had undergone canal wall down or canal wall up mastoidectomy for COM with cholesteatoma, and had an indication for revision surgery. Intervention(s): Revision mastoidectomy with obliteration of the open cavity was performed with PFAB, a low-cost filler material obtained from a tissue bank. Main Outcome Measure(s): The main outcome measure was the control of suppuration. Secondary outcome measures included PFAB integration in the mastoid cavity, presence of recurrent or residual cholesteatoma, hearing outcomes, postoperative complications as infection and bone graft extrusion and quality of life after the procedure using the Glasgow benefit inventory (GBI) survey. Results: Mean follow-up was 28 months. Seven patients achieved a dry ear at a mean of 8 weeks postoperatively. Three patients developed bone graft exposure followed by infection and extrusion of the filler material. Mean bone density was 755.35 Hounsfield units at the obliteration site measured at computed tomography performed after a mean of 31 months postoperatively. Percentage of mastoid volume obliterated was between 75% and 100% in 6 cases and between 50% and 75% in 1 case. In all 7 patients, there was an increase in bone density postoperatively. One patient presented with recurrent epitympanic cholesteatoma (0.5 cm) at 1 year postoperatively, but it was not in the obliteration area. At 12 months postoperatively, 80% of patients had preserved hearing. All patients had an improvement of quality of life after mastoid obliteration, the average score on the GBI was 52 in a scale from -100 to +100. Conclusions: This study demonstrated that PFAB may be used to achieve a dry mastoid cavity with...

Bancos de ossos são necessários para prover material biológico para uma série de procedimentos ortopédicos. A crescente necessidade de tecidos musculoesqueléticos para transplante é decorrente do desenvolvimento de novas técnicas cirúrgicas e fez com que diversos serviços se dispusessem a ter sua própria fonte de tecidos para transplante. Para aumentar a segurança dos tecidos transplantados, normas foram impostas pelo governo para o funcionamento dos bancos, o que limitou o número de instituições autorizadas. O bom desempenho de um banco de ossos depende de um rígido controle de todas as etapas, passando pela formação de equipes bem treinadas para captação, pela seleção de doadores, pela realização de diversos exames nos tecidos captados e pelo controle rigoroso das técnicas de processamento utilizadas. A associação desses fatores faz com que a abrangência do uso e do número de pacientes receptores seja ampliada, a contaminação de tecidos seja de incidência estatisticamente desprezível e haja rastreabilidade entre doadores e receptores. Este trabalho descreve as considerações técnicas quanto ao funcionamento de um banco, uso de enxertos e aplicações ortopédicas, bem como aspectos éticos e principais obstáculos enfrentados.

The characteristics of the recipients were drawn up in the table form. The types of tissue processed were: femoral heads, metaphyseal-epiphyseal bone, cortical bone, flat or short bones and tendons. The intended purpose of the grafts was analyzed, and distribution frequencies were also obtained and analyzed. RESULTS: Altogether, 734 units of fresh-frozen tissue were distributed and transplanted into 683 recipients. In terms of origin of the tissues, 97.9 percent came from multiple organ donors, and the remainder from living donors. A total of 489 units of cortical bone were transplanted, 137 of metaphyseal-epiphyseal bone, 44 of short or flat bones, 3 of tendon, 29 of particulate bone and 32 femoral heads. The mean age of the recipients was 50.3 years; 59.5 percent were women and 40.5 percent men. The tissues were used in orthopedic surgeries in 21.1 percent of the cases, and in oral and maxillofacial procedures in 78.9 percent. CONCLUSION: The Tissue Bank has increased the number of distributions in response to the growing demand for tissues, particularly for use in oral and maxillofacial procedures.

O uso de enxertos ósseos provenientes de bancos de tecidos, também conhecidos como enxertos homólogos, tem aumentado nos últimos anos. Seu uso é indicado na ausência de osso autólogo para captação, ou em casos aonde o paciente apresenta resistência frente à necessidade de manipulação de um segundo leito cirúrgico para captação do biomaterial autólogo. Existem poucos estudos a respeito do comportamento biológico destes enxertos, em especial comparando blocos corticais e cortico medulares, e qual a sua eficiência quando comparado aos enxertos autólogos. O objetivo desta pesquisa foi avaliar, em humanos, a incorporação dos enxertos ósseos homólogos cortical (AL C) e cortico medular (AL CM) comparativamente ao autólogo (AT), com análises tomográfica, histológica e histomorfométrica. Para tal foram avaliados 45 pacientes, sendo que 15 foram submetidos a enxertos ósseos AT, 15 a enxertos ósseos AL CM e 15 com enxerto AL C. Tomografias foram obtidas em três períodos distintos para todos os grupos(AT, AL CM e AL C), antes da cirurgia de enxerto, imediatamente após e oito meses (período final) depois da realização dos enxertos. Após o período final para cada grupo foram removidas biópsia dos enxertos. Análise histomorfométrica dos cortes descalcificados foram realizadas para avaliar a quantidade de osso vital e não vital. Os resultados da análise tomográfica demonstraram maior perda de volume ósseo no grupo AL CM. A análise histomorfométrica mostrou que o grupo AT apresentou maior quantidade de osso vital (27,6%), seguido pelo AL CM (20,3%) e pelo AL C (12,4%). As diferenças foram estatisticamente significantes. Desta forma, pode-se concluir que o osso homólogo cortical apresentou um grande atraso na remodelação óssea.
The use of bone grafts obtained from tissue banks, also known as allografts has increased in recent years. Its use is indicated in the absence of autologous bone for capture, or in cases where the patient is resistant towards the need for manipulation of a second surgical site to capture autologous biomaterial. There are few studies on the biological behavior of these grafts, especially comparing cortical and cortico spinal blocks, and what is its efficiency when compared to autologous grafts. The aim of this study was to evaluate, in humans, the incorporation of homologous cortical bone grafts (AL C) and cortical medullary (AL CM) compared to autologous (AT) with tomographic analysis, histology and histomorphometry. To this end, we evaluated 45 patients, 15 underwent bone grafts AT, 15 bone grafts and 15 AL CM graft AL C. CT scans were obtained in three separate periods for all groups (AT, CM and AL AL C) before graft surgery, immediately after eight months (late) after the completion of the grafts. After the final period for each group were removed biopsy of the grafts. Histomorphometric analysis of decalcified sections were performed to assess the amount of vital and non-vital bone. The results of tomographic analysis showed a greater loss of bone volume in the LA group CM. Histomorphometric analysis showed that the AT group had a higher amount of vital bone (27.6%) followed by CM AL (20.3%) and AL C (12.4%). The differences were statistically significant. Thus, one can conclude that homologous cortical bone showed a large delay in bone turnover
