Problem Statement:

3D-printed hydroxyapatite tray for segmental mandibular bone reconstruction by stem cell delivery for oral cancer patients


Detail:

A 3D-printing technique is utilised to develop personalised 3D-hydroxyapatite constructs, custom-made to form a tray and have implanted at the area of defect after surgical resection of the recurrent tumour for mandibular reconstruction by stem-cell delivery for oral cancer patients.hydroxyapatite constructs are fabricated by direct-write assembly and an anatomically-shaped tray is formed by fusing the constructs using bone cement In vivo 3D-printed hydroxyapatite tray for segmental mandibular bone reconstruction by stem cell delivery for oral cancer patients Ms Sanskrita Das Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi Guided by: Dr Sourabh Ghosh studies and clinical trials are performed and function of mandible is found to be more or less achievable as far as chewing, talking and swallowing are concerned. The recorded Oral Health Quality Of Life is satisfactory.
