Abstract

During the period between 1972-1992 32 patients with calvarial bone defects were treated by 35 reconstructions. The paper presents early and late results of various methods of reconstructions. Very good late results were achieved in all 5 patients in whom the defects were reconstructed with autogenic split cranial bone graft. There were equally good results in 19 from 22 patients in whom acrylic and propylene-polyester implants were applied. Total resorption of autogenic split iliac and split rib bone graft were observed in all 5 patients in whom skull defects were filled with this tissue.

Allogenic & Autologous Therapies

Allogenic therapies are generated in large batches from unrelated donor tissues such as bone marrow. In contrast, autologous therapies are manufactures as a single lot from the patient being treated. Here is the latest research on allogenic and autologous therapies.
