简要总结
The purpose of this present study was to evaluate the efficiency of the growth factors delivered by concentrated growth factor (CGF) on the healing process of osteoporotic patients with medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaws (MRONJ).
This randomized controlled study composed of osteoporotic female patients who were treated with oral bisphosphonates (BPs) and diagnosed with MRONJ. For the CGF group, each patient was treated with local application of CGF at the surgical site after removing the necrotic bone while the surgical area was only primarily closed as traditional surgical therapy for the control group. The patients underwent clinical examinations for 6 months postoperatively to check the presence of infection and dehiscence.
详细描述
This randomized controlled study comprised 28 elderly female osteoporotic patients diagnosed with MRONJ at the department of oral and maxillofacial surgery of a university hospital between May 2016 and April 2018.
Before the surgery, the sequentially numbered sealed envelopes were used to randomly assign patients to the study groups:
Study group (14 patients treated with CGF clots + primarily closure) Control group (14 patients treated without CGF placement + primarily closure)
All procedures were performed under local anesthesia by the same surgeon. After removal of superficial bone sequestrum, the necrotic bone was removed with rotating burs, curettage was performed, and the surface of the bone was smoothened (Fig. 2). CGF was then applied to the surgical area in the study group (n=14), and the area was primarily closed after additional releasing incisions were made to the periosteum to assure tension-free soft tissue closure (Fig. 3). In the control group (n=14), the surgical area was only primarily closed without any mobilization of the flap following sequestrectomy and bone curettage as a traditional surgical therapy. A soft diet and daily irrigation with 0.12% chlorhexidine were prescribed for 2 weeks postoperatively. The sutures were removed 14 days postoperatively.
The primary outcome variable of this study was soft tissue healing 6 months post-operatively. The patients underwent weekly clinical examinations for the 1st month and then monthly clinical examinations for 6 months postoperatively. At the time of the evaluation, soft tissue coverage in the surgical site was assessed without signs of infection and/or necrotic bone. The presence of infection was assessed as follows: erythema, swelling, bleeding on probing and purulent exudate. The differences between the study groups were recorded and considered to indicate postoperative healing. BP treatment status and ONJ classification of each patient were recorded and these differences were also assessed in soft tissue healing.

主要结局
Soft tissue healing
时间窗: Change of soft tissue healing 6 months postoperatively
Healing was defined as the previous studies. The patients underwent weekly clinical examinations for the 1st month and then monthly clinical examinations for 6 months postoperatively. At the time of the evaluation, soft tissue coverage in the surgical site was assessed without signs of infection and/or necrotic bone. The presence of infection was assessed as follows: erythema, swelling, bleeding on probing and purulent exudate.
