Comparison of Bioengineered Scaffolds for the Induction of Osteochondrogenic Differentiation of Human Adipose-Derived Stem Cells.

Osteochondral lesions may be due to trauma or congenital conditions. In both cases, therapy is limited because of the difficulty of tissue repair. Tissue engineering is a promising approach that relies on designed scaffolds with variable mechanical attributes to favor cell attachment and differentiation.

Clinical Outcomes of CAD-CAM Subperiosteal Implants for the Rehabilitation of Atrophic Jaws.

Thanks to the use of new digital technologies and innovations in materials, there has been an increasing interest in subperiosteal implants. These implants are considered to be helpful for the rehabilitation of severe jaw atrophies, as they overcome some disadvantages of endosseous implantology. In the present clinical retrospective study, 18 patients were treated and the clinical outcomes of the treatment were recorded after 12 months of follow-up.

Arteriovenous fistula of the mandible: a case report.

Intraosseous arteriovenous malformations (AVM) are uncommon high-flow vascular malformation that can affect the maxilla or mandible. AVM may present with aspecific and misleading signs and symptoms. The diagnosis is often accidental and bleeding may represent the first symptom.
