March 3, 2011 at 7:41 AM   Acute skeletal injury is necessary for human adipose-derived stromal cell-mediated calvarial regeneration. Plast Reconstr Surg. 2011 Mar;127(3):1118-29 Authors: Levi B, James AW, Nelson ER, Peng M, Wan DC, Commons GW, Lee M, Wu B, Longaker MT : Studies have demonstrated that human adipose-derived stromal cells (ASCs) are able to repair acute calvarial injuries. The more clinically relevant repair of an established skeletal defect, however, has not been addressed. The authors sought to determine whether human ASCs could heal chronic (established) calvarial defects. PMID: 21364415 [PubMed - in process]         Role of Indian hedgehog signaling in palatal osteogenesis. March 3, 2011 at 7:41 AM   Role of Indian hedgehog signaling in palatal osteogenesis. Plast Reconstr Surg. 2011 Mar;127(3):1182-90 Authors: Levi B, James AW, Nelson ER, Brugmann SA, Sorkin M, Manu A, Longaker MT : Cleft lip-cleft palate is a common congenital disability and represents a large biomedical burden. Through the use of animal models, the molecular underpinnings of cleft palate are becoming increasingly clear. Indian hedgehog (Ihh) has been shown to be associated with craniofacial development and to be active in the palatine bone. The authors hypothesize that Indian hedgehog activity plays a role in osteogenesis within the secondary palate and that defects in this pathway may inhibit osteogenesis of the secondary palate.

March 3, 2011 at 7:41 AM   Eighth IQUAM Consensus Conference Position Statement: Transatlantic Innovations, April 2009. Plast Reconstr Surg. 2011 Mar;127(3):1368-75 Authors: Neuhann-Lorenz C, Fedeles J, Eisenman-Klein M, Kinney B, Cunningham BL : On April 7, 2009, the International Committee for Quality Assurance, Medical Technologies and Devices in Plastic Surgery (IQUAM) issued its 8th Position Statement. IQUAM is a professional medical and scientific organization committed to the surveillance of existing and new technologies and devices in plastic surgery. IQUAM periodically reviews and evaluates updated international literature and studies and scientific data, and recommends standards of treatment for plastic surgery devices and technologies. IQUAM proscribes potentially deleterious use of products, devices, and technologies, or their unintended application or application for unsuitable indications.

March 3, 2011 at 7:41 AM   Optimization of human tendon tissue engineering: peracetic Acid oxidation for enhanced reseeding of acellularized intrasynovial tendon. Plast Reconstr Surg. 2011 Mar;127(3):1107-17 Authors: Woon CY, Pridgen BC, Kraus A, Bari S, Pham H, Chang J : Tissue engineering of human flexor tendons combines tendon scaffolds with recipient cells to create complete cell-tendon constructs. Allogenic acellularized human flexor tendon has been shown to be a useful natural scaffold. However, there is difficulty repopulating acellularized tendon with recipient cells, as cell penetration is restricted by a tightly woven tendon matrix. The authors evaluated peracetic acid treatment in optimizing intratendinous cell penetration.
