Between 1981 and 1998 frozen and radiation sterilized bone allografts were transplanted into 1376 patients at the Institute of Traumatology, Orthopaedic and Neurosurgery of the Military School of Medicine in Warsaw. Of these 179 (13%) required treatment due to benign tumours. Incidence of solitary cysts was highest (127 cases, 71%), mainly occurring in children (84%). During surgery bone cysts were excised and filled by bone grafts. Results were evaluated several years after surgery (2-10 yrs) using x-rays and clinical examination. Rebuilding of allografts was one of the most important prognostic factors. Within the period of observation time 83% of transplanted allografts were rebuilt and substituted by own patients bone.

Bone disorders have increased with increasing the human lifespan, and despite the tissue's ability to self-regeneration, in many congenital problems and hard fractures, bone grafting such as autograft, allograft, and biomaterials implantation through surgery is traditionally used. Because of the adverse effects of these methods, the emergence of injectable hydrogels without the need for surgery and causing more pain for the patient is stunning to develop a new pattern for hard tissue engineering. These materials are formed with various natural and synthetic polymers with a crosslinked network through various chemical methods such as click chemistry, Michael enhancement, Schiff's base and enzymatic reaction and physical interactions with high water absorption which can mimic the environment of cells.

Background: The impact of tongue protrusion forces on the formation of malocclusions is well documented in academic literature. In the case of bone dehiscence of the buccal wall in front of the lower frontal teeth, this process may be even more pronounced. Augmentation with 3D customized allogenic bone blocks (CABB) has been proposed as a potential solution for treating such defects.

Background: The long-term stability of allograft or native bone in facial vascularized composite allograft (fVCA) recipients is unclear. This study quantified long-term bone volume changes in facial transplants.
Methods: Computed tomography scans of eight fVCA recipients (2011-2023) were analyzed with Materialise Mimics.

Bone defects caused by fractures and diseases often do not heal spontaneously. They require external agents for repair and regeneration. Bone tissue engineering is emerging as a promising alternative to traditional therapies like autografts and allografts.

Bone regeneration is limited and generally requires external intervention to promote effective repair. Autografts, allografts, and xenografts as traditional methods for addressing bone defects have been widely utilized, their clinical applicability is limited due to their respective disadvantages. Fortunately, functional polysaccharide hydrogels have gained significant attention in bone regeneration due to their exceptional drug-loading capacity, biocompatibility, and ease of chemical modification.
