Abstract:
Introduction Non-union (NU) is a fracture that will not unite. With over one million fractures per annum in the UK long bone non-union has serious social and economical implications. There is little epidemiological data available specifically looking at this NU patient cohort. Studies that are bone specific quote rates of non-union as a proportion of their study group but there is no data quantifying the incidence of NU in the population or per fracture. Studies have highlighted risk factors associated with atrophic non-union including age, diabetes, non-steroidals, and cigarette smoking. Ther

Abstract:
Abstract Hip fracture is a trauma with serious consequences, especially in the elderly. Etiological factors should be known better than nowadays to recognize the individuals at high risk. Also, the treatment of displaced femoral neck fractures has been controversial, and the factors leading to a functional outcome are not known well. The true impact of deep infection on the outcome after hip fracture surgery has also been insufficiently examined. The thesis is based on two etiological studies. In the first study, the geometrical parameters of the upper femur and pelvis in postmenopausal women

Abstract:
Bone defects and fracture non-unions remain a substantial challenge for clinicians due to a high occurrence of delayed union or non-union requiring surgical intervention. The current grafting procedures used to treat these injuries have many limitations and further long-term complications associated with them. This has resulted in research efforts to identify graft substitution therapies that are able to repair and replace tissue function. Many of these tissue engineered products include the use of growth factors to induce cell differentiation, migration, proliferation, and/or matrix produc

Abstract:
[Truncated abstract] Renewed interest in the fixation of fractures using plates has been stimulated by an improved understanding of the biology of fracture healing and a drive towards minimally invasive surgery. This has led to a change in the way we use plates nowadays and the way in which we build the bone-plate construct, as well as the development of new implants better suited to these techniques. As a result of this, we have now the potential to safely expand the indications for plate fixation especially in the management of fractures in osteopenic bone. This thesis provides scientific ev

Abstract:
Osteoporosis is a significant healthcare issue due to the increasing elderly population. Bisphosphonates are used to treat osteoporosis by reducing the rate of resorption, increasing bone mineral density (BMD) and thereby reducing fracture risk. Long-term bisphosphonate treatment, however, has been associated with low-energy fractures. Bone microdamage may provide a partial explanation for one of the mechanisms responsible for these fractures since it has been shown to reduce bone toughness, fracture resistance, and bone strength.

Cell-based therapies have potential for tissue regeneration but poor delivery methods lead to low viability or dispersal of cells from target sites, limiting clinical utility. Here, we developed a degradable and injectable hydrogel to deliver stem cells for bone regeneration. Alginate microbeads <200µm are injectable, persist at implantation sites and contain viable cells, but do not readily degrade in-vivo. We hypothesized that controlled release of rat adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) from alginate microbeads can be achieved by incorporating alginate-lyase in the hydrogel. Microbeads were f

Bone fracture, particularly that occurring in osteoporotic conditions, has become a major health issue. Fracture healing is a well-orchestrated regenerative process, the enhancement of which has been one of the major goals in fracture management.
