The paper examine 40 cases of bone graft from the iliac crest used in maxillo-facial surgery. The immediate and late complications included pain with resulting difficulty of walking and, less frequently, hematoma, sensitivity disorders and dehiscence of the wound. Late complications were most frequently related to esthetic problems as well as a negligible number of persistent cases of difficult walking and neurological deficiencies. The results obtained were comparable to those most recently reported in the literature. The low incidence of immediate and late sequelae at the donor site and the characteristics of the bone graft confirm the suitability of iliac crest bone graft, in particular for use in reconstructive maxillo-facial surgery.

Aplastic anemia (AA) is a life-threatening bone marrow failure syndrome. The advent of next-generation sequencing (NGS) has shed light on the link between somatic mutations (SM) and the efficacy of immunosuppressive therapy (IST) in AA patients. However, the relationship between SM and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) has not been extensively explored.

Background/purpose: Bone reconstruction in the maxillofacial region typically relies on autologous bone grafting, which presents challenges, including donor site complications and graft limitations. Recent advances in tissue engineering have identified highly pure and proliferative dedifferentiated fat cells (DFATs) as promising alternatives. Herein, we explored the capacity for osteoblast differentiation and the osteoinductive characteristics of extracellular vesicles derived from DFATs (DFAT-EVs).

Background/purpose: Autologous dentin materials are among the most promising bone substitutes for preventing osseous defects on the distal side of the lower second molar. This study aimed to investigate the effects of autologous demineralized dentin matrix on postoperative complications and wound healing after lower third molar surgery.
Materials And Methods: Thirteen patients with bilateral symmetrical lower third molars participated in this split-mouth randomized clinical trial.

The immune responses following SARS-CoV-2 infection in children are still under investigation. While coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is usually mild in the paediatric population, some children develop severe clinical manifestations or multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) after infection. MIS-C, typically emerging 2-6 weeks after SARS-CoV-2 exposure, is characterized by a hyperinflammatory response affecting multiple organs.
