Area of Science:

  • Biomaterials Engineering
  • Regenerative Medicine
  • Orthopedic Surgery

Background:

  • Large bone defects pose significant treatment challenges, often limiting the use of traditional autografts.
  • Patient-specific synthetic bone substitutes offer a promising alternative for bone regeneration.
  • Controlling scaffold properties like porosity and rigidity is crucial for effective bone repair.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and evaluate novel 3D printed composite scaffolds as synthetic bone substitutes.
  • To functionalize scaffolds with osteogenic factors to promote bone formation.
  • To assess the *in vitro* biocompatibility and *in vivo* efficacy in critical size bone defects.

Main Methods:

  • Fabrication of photocuring composite resins with poly(trimethylene carbonate) and bioactive ceramics.
  • 3D printing of porous scaffolds and integration with macroporous cryogels.
  • Functionalization of scaffolds with bone morphogenetic protein and zoledronic acid.
  • Evaluation of biocompatibility *in vitro* and bone regeneration *in vivo* in rabbit tibia and cranial models.

Main Results:

  • The 3D printed scaffolds demonstrated excellent biocompatibility *in vitro*.
  • Functionalized scaffolds significantly enhanced bone formation and defect healing *in vivo*.
  • Improved outcomes were observed in both critical size long bone and cranial defects in rabbit models.

Conclusions:

  • Bioactive molecule-functionalized 3D printed porous composite scaffolds are effective synthetic bone substitutes.
  • These scaffolds provide a conductive surface that promotes enhanced bone regeneration.
  • The developed composites represent a promising next-generation solution for treating critical bone defects.
