Lateral Ramus Cortical Bone Plate in Alveolar Cleft Osteoplasty: Concomitant Use of Buccal Fat Pad Derived Cells and Autogenous Bone in a Preliminary Study

Our aim was to combine regenerative techniques with bone grafting in human models to increase predictability and survival of reconstructed tissue. The MSCs in this study were derived from an intra oral fat source (BFP) and were cultured over natural bovine bone mineral granules and delivered within the lateral ramus cortical bone plate (LRCP)to treat human alveolar cleft defects.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Patients enrolled in the present study were suffering from alveolar cleft and had previously received orthodontic treatment and only required secondary alveolar grafting. The buccal fat pad derived stem cells (BFPSCs) were harvested from buccal fat pad tissues of the patients. Patients were divided into 3 groups. Group A , the control group, was treated with anterior iliac crest (AIC) spongy bone to fill defects, followed by coverage with collagen membrane. Group B was treated with lateral ramus cortical bone cage (LRCP), used to create a protected healing space by fixing it to adjacent walls of the cleft defect. Group C was treated with (AIC) as in Group 1, but BFP-derived MSCs cultured over NBBM were put over the spongy bone and covered with a collagen membrane.Passage 3 BFPSCs were loaded on the implants ( Cerabone (Botiss, Berlin, Germany) a natural bovine bone mineral (NBBM); a granular biomaterial with a 200- to 850-µm particle size) 3 days prior to transplantation.Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) was obtained after 6 months.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Active Comparator: A:Iiac
Treated with anterior iliac crest spongy bone to fill defects, followed by coverage with collagen membrane.
Anterior iliac crest spongy bone filled the defects followed by coverage with collagen membrane.
Experimental: B:MSCs+LRCP
Treated with lateral ramus cortical bone plate (LRCP) to create a protected healing space by fixing it to adjacent walls of the cleft defect. BFPScs were loaded on NBBM and delivered to the defect
ramus cortical bone cage created a protected healing space and BFPSCs cultured over NBBM were put over the graft.
Experimental: C:MSCs+liac
Treated with anterior iliac crest spongy bone as in Group 1, but BFP-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs ) cultured over NBBM were put over the spongy bone and covered with a collagen membrane.
Anterior iliac crest spongy bone filled the defects and BFPSCs cultured over NBBM were put over the spongy bone.
