Aim: To analyze the efficacy of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) in contrast to platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) along with synthetic nanocrystalline hydroxyapatite (HA) and β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) bone graft in the regeneration of bone defects in children.
Materials And Methods: A total of 20 children in whom bone defect was present were selected and divided into two groups of 10. In group I, the bone defect was filled with PRP + nanocrystalline HA with β-TCP and group II, with PRF + nanocrystalline HA with β-TCP. Radiographs using VistaScan with a mesh grid were taken to analyze the bone density and bone regeneration. Clinical evaluation with respect to the color of overlying mucosa, sinus formation, pus discharge, and seepage of bone graft was done. The parameters used to analyze the radiographs included gray scale analysis, residual bone defect calculation in pixels both performed in CorelDraw version 13 software, and radiopaque scoring scale.
Results: The mean bone defect density measured using gray scale was higher in the PRF than PRP group. The percentage of bone formation analyzed using residual bone defect calculation and mean radiopaque score revealed that the PRF group showed better outcomes compared to the PRP group.
Conclusion: Both PRP and PRF are equally effective in promoting bone regeneration with PRF showing slight superiority over PRP.

Bone infection remains a challenging condition to fully eradicate due to its intricate nature. Traditional treatment strategies, involving long-term and high-dose systemic antibiotic administration, often encounter difficulties in achieving therapeutic drug concentrations locally and may lead to antibiotic resistance. Bone cement, serving as a local drug delivery matrix, has emerged as an effective anti-infective approach validated in clinical settings.

Glenoid bone loss in the setting of complex reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (rTSA) poses a challenge to surgeons. The advent of custom-made glenoid implants has allowed for the restoration of glenoid alignment and version in cases of significant defects. We present a novel case of a patient who underwent bilateral rTSAs, one of which was performed with a 3D-printed custom glenoid implant.

Periodontal and peri-implant diseases are a significant public health problem worldwide, resulting in the destruction of the supporting bone. These bone defects can cause esthetic problems, increased relapse rate, and eventually tooth loss. The etiology of periodontal disease involves an influx of innate immune cells (neutrophils and monocytes) and upregulation of local inflammatory cytokines in the gingiva.

Limb-sparing techniques for appendicular primary bone tumors are still associated with a high rate of complications. Three-dimensional (3D)-printed patient-specific instruments could reduce these complications. The aim of this study is to describe a limb-sparing surgery using 3D-printed patient-specific guides (PSGs) and an endoprosthesis (PSE) to treat femoral chondrosarcoma in a dog.
