The worldwide incidence of bone disorders and conditions has been increasing. According to Ghosh et al‚ Sorokhod et al & Erbe et al‚ most of the inorganic material found in our bone tissue are created by the calcium phosphate that is part of the hydroxyapatite (as cited in Sheikh‚ 2015). Bone‚ as a living tissue has the ability to heal by itself but if the injury exceeds the limit of the bone to recover itself‚ it will not heal naturally (Rajendran‚ 2015). Current treatments have loopholes making

An Osteoma is a benign tumor made of bone‚ and they can appear anywhere in the body. “Osteomas of the temporal bone are rare‚ slow growing neoplasms.” These specific types of osteomas can occur anywhere on the temporal bone. Lesions can appear if these osteomas are not treated properly. This particular study focused on osteomas of the temporal bone in young adults‚ ranging from ages twelve to fifteen‚ consisting of five young women and 4 young men. During a 9 year period‚ from January 1999 to

Cortical Bone Trajectory Screws for Middle Upper Thoracic: a Anatomico-Radiological Study Introduction Pedicle screw fixation system has been widely used in spinal surgery due to its biomechanical advantage in three-dimensional fixation and short-segment fixation. However‚ Complications such as screw loosening‚ pullout and broken‚ often lead to loss of surgical construct stability‚ particularly in patients with poor bone quality [1-4]. The cortical bone trajectory (CBT)[5] technique is a theoretical

up of cartilage and bone. Both bone and cartilage are connective tissues‚ that is‚ they are composed of cells in a matrix with intracellular fibers. Just imagine connective tissue as a gelatin salad with grapes and coconut. The grapes would represent cells‚ the gelatin the support material for matrix‚ and the pieces of coconut the intracellular fibers. By changing the amounts of each ingredient and adding extra substances‚ we can produce a material that is very hard like bone and can withstand weight
