Article Abstract

Objectives: This case series aims to describe the virtual surgical planning process and report the surgical outcomes of in-house-designed patientspecific implants (PSIs) combined with navigation systems in orthognathic surgery.

Patients And Methods: Three patients undergoing two-jaw surgery were assessed across pre-surgical planning, surgical execution, and post-surgical evaluation phases. The accuracy was evaluated between the surgical plan (T0) and immediate post-operative three-dimensional (3D) radiographic image (T1) using 2 methods: bone surface comparison and dental landmark comparison. The stability was assessed between T1 and 3D radiographic image at 9 months after surgery (T2) by Bone surface comparison method.

Results: The accuracy assessed by Bone surface comparison shows that green areas (deviation between 0.0-0.4 mm) were mostly observed in the anterior region of the Le Fort I segment. The average deviations of dental landmark comparison are as follows: in the left-right direction, 0.28±0.41 to the right; in the anterior-posterior direction, 0.13±0.48 to the posterior; and in the superior-inferior direction, 0.37±0.39 to the inferior. The stability assessed by bone surface comparison shows the green area in two of three patients, indicating minimal post-surgical changes.

Conclusion: The in-house-designed PSIs combined with navigation systems can achieve accuracy and stability in orthognathic surgery.

An Investigation of Hyperostosis Frontalis Interna in a Modern Anatomical Body Donor Population.

Clin Anat

September 2025

Department of Communication Disorders and Sciences, Rush University Medical Center, Chicago, Illinois, USA.

This research sought to examine the prevalence and severity of hyperostosis frontalis interna (HFI) in the Chicagoland anatomical body donor population. The study further aimed to elucidate potential demographic risk factors for HFI, including sex, age at death, and structural vulnerability index (SVI), as well as any common comorbidities, as gleaned from death certificates. HFI is an irregular bony overgrowth of the endocranial surface of the frontal bone.

Reconstructing bone defects remains a significant challenge in clinical practice, driving the urgent need for advanced artificial grafts that simultaneously promote vascularization and osteogenesis. Addressing the critical trade-off between achieving high porosity/strength and effective bioactivity at safe ion doses, we incorporated strontium (Sr) into β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) scaffolds with a triply periodic minimal surface (TPMS) structure using digital light processing (DLP)-based three-dimensional (3D) printing. Systematically screening Sr concentrations (0-10 mol%), we identified 10 mol% as optimal, leveraging the synergy between the biomimetic TPMS architecture, providing exceptional mechanical strength (up to 1.

Construction of Silver-Calcium Micro-Galvanic Cell on Titanium for Immunoregulation Osteogenesis.

BME Front

State Key Laboratory of High Performance Ceramics, Shanghai Institute of Ceramics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Shanghai 200050, China.

This work aims to construct a functional titanium surface with spontaneous electrical stimulation for immune osteogenesis and antibacteria. A silver-calcium micro-galvanic cell was engineered on the titanium implant surface to spontaneously generate microcurrents for osteoimmunomodulation and bacteria killing, which provides a promising strategy for the design of a multifunctional electroactive titanium implant. Titanium-based implants are usually bioinert, which often leads to inflammation-induced loosening.

Triply periodic minimal surfaces have garnered significant interest in the field of biomaterial scaffolds due to their unique structural properties, including a high surface-to-volume (S/V) ratio, tunable permeability, and the potential for enhanced biocompatibility. Bone scaffolds necessitate specific features to effectively support tissue regeneration. This study examines the permeability and active cell proliferation area of advanced Triply Periodic Minimal Surface (TPMS) lattice structures, focusing on a novel lattice design.

The Union Cycliste Internationale recognizes several mountain biking (MTB) disciplines, including downhill, enduro, cross-country short track, cross-country Olympic, cross-country marathon, and multiday stage racing. Cyclocross is recognized as a separate cycling discipline. Both MTB and cyclocross include cycling on off-road surfaces of varying technicality on specialized bicycles purposed for the respective disciplines.
