The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of modified calcium sulfate paste on periodontal regeneration. l-wall intrabony defect(mesio-distal width: 4mm, depth: 4mm) was surgically created on the distal side of P2 and mesial side of p4 in four dogs. The control group(GFS) was treated with conventional flap operation alone, and the experimental group(CS) was treated with conventional flap operation with modified calcium sulfate paste application. Both control and experimental groups were sacrificed after 8weeks of healing period, The results of histological and histometric observations were as follows. 1. The length of the junctional epithelium was 0.41${\pm}$0.01mm in the control groups, 0.47${\pm}$0.01mm in the experimental group. 2. The connective tissue attachment was 0.28${\pm}$0.02mm(6.15${\pm}$0.28%) in the control group, 0.18${\pm}$0.01mm(3.41${\pm}$0.14%) in the experimental group. The control group showed more connective tissue attachment. 3. The new cementum formation was 3.80${\pm}$0.06mm(84.80${\pm}$0.33%) in the control group, 4.49${\pm}$0.06mm(87.57${\pm}$0.15%) in the experimental group. Both groups showed a lot of new cementum formation. 4. The new bone formation was 1.43${\pm}$0.03mm(32.37%) in the control group, 2.04${\pm}$O.09mm(40.94%) in the experimental group. 5. The inflamatory cells were observed partially around resorbed calcium sulfate in the connective tissue of the experimental group. 6. Partially resorbed calcium sulfate were found within the connective tissue, around alveolar bone, and in the newly formed alveolar bone, On the basis of these results, newly formed calcium sulfate paste enhanced new bone formation and new cementum formation. The resorption rate of calcium sulfate seems to be controlled by the add-in compounds. Thus research about biocompatibility and adequate resorptionrate is required to develop a improved material.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of demineralized freeze dried bone and demineralized bone gel with guided tissue regeneration treatment around titanium implants with dehisced bony defects and also evaluate space maintaining capacity of demineralized bone gel type and DFDB powder type under e-PTFE membrane. In 3 Beagle dogs, mandibular premolar was extracted and four peri-implant osteotomies were formed for dehiscence. After insertion of implants, the four peri-implant defects were treated as follows. 1) In control group. no graft material and barrier membrane were applied. 2) In experimental group.1, the site was covered only with the e-PTFE membrane. 3) In experimental group 2,received DFDB powder and covered by the e-PTFE membrane. 4) In experimental group 3, demineralized bone gel and e-PTFE membrane were used. By random selection, animals were sacrificed at 4, 8, 12 weeks. The block sectioned specimens were prepared for decalcified histologic evaluation(hematoxylin and eosin staining) and undecalcified histologic evahiation(Von Kossa's and toluidine blue staining) with light microscopy. The results of this study were as follows. 1) In control group, there was a little new bone formation and connective tissue was completely filled in the defect area. 2) Experimental group 1 showed lesser quantity of bone formation as compared to the bone grafted group. Thin vertical growth of new bone formation around implant fixture was shown. 3) Experimental group 2 showed thick bucco-lingual growth of new bone formation and grafted bone particles were almost resorbed in 12 week group. 4) In experimental group 3, most grafted bone particles were not resorbed in 12 week group and thick bucco-lingual bone formation was shown in dehisced defect base area. 5) There was no remarkable differences in space making capacity and new bone formation procedure between demineralized freeze-dried bone powder type and demineralized bone gel type.

We evaluated the correlationship between the predicted defect size at preoperative examination and the actual defect size at operation room, by examining 69 cases of ventricular septal defect operated at the deparment of Thoracic and Cardiovascular surgery, Kyungpook University Hospital from January 1988 to December 1990. We excluded cases associated with other cardiac anomalies. Of the 69 cases, 39 are male and 30 female, forming 1.3:1 sex ratio in males favor. Their age range from 6 months to 16 year, and 4.3 on the average Their body weights are from 6 to 45kg and 15 on the average. According to Soto`s classification, perimembranous type costitutes 42 cases[61%], doubly committed subarterial type 23 cases[33%], and muscular type 4 cases[6%]. The average diameter of defect size is 8.0$\pm$3.5mm measured in 2D-echocardiogram, 5.6$\pm$3.4mm in angiogram, and 7.4$\pm$4.4mm in operative field. There is statistically significant correlation between the size from 2D-echocardiogram and actual defect size[p=0.001], and no significant difference between the two. Especially in the cases without anurysmal formation, they are nearly the same. Cardiothoracic ratio, pulmonary to systemic flow ratio, pressure ratio and resistance ratio also have statistically significant correlation. Main pumonary artery to descending aorta diameter ratio is correlated with the actual defect size. There is statistically significant correlation between the size from angiogram and actual defect size with some difference.

Many natural medicines have been studied for their capacity and effects of antibacterial, anti-inflammatory and regenerative potential in periodontal tissues. Safflower seed has been traditionally used as a drug for treatment of bone fracture in oriental medicine. The purpose of the present study was to compare the effects of safflower seed extract and bone substitute on bone formation and regeneration in artificial defects in mongrel dogs. The bony defects were made with round bur at mandible and tibia. Extracts of safflower seed and bovine bone were placed directly at each defect for experimental group, and the defect of control group was sutured without any other treatment. Experimental animals were sacrificed at 8 weeks. And then histopathologic reading and histomorphometric study was done. There was not significant differences between control and experimental groups in osteoclastic activity and infiltration of inflammatory cells. However, new capillary proliferation, fibrosis and new bone formation were prominent in safflower seed extract group. The mandibular defects of safflower seed extract group were healed with dense connective and bony tissues, and endochondral bone formation was observed in tibial defect of safflower seed extract group only. New bone area of safflower seed extract group was more significantly increased than that of control and that of bone substitute group. These results indicate that direct local application of safflower seed extracts on bony defects seems to reduces the early inflammatory response and to promotes the bone regeneration.

Objective: The Purpose of the study was to investigate the bone morphogenic protein expression of rhBMP-2(recombinant human bone morphogenic protein-2) as singnaling molecule and ${\beta}-TCP$(Tricalcium phosphate) as a bone substitute and carrier medium of rhBMP-2. Materials and Methods: 16 rabbits divided into 2 group of each 8 rabbit. Two standardized bone defect, round bilateral defect was made in the cranium of the 8 rabbit of first group, and was grafted with $150{\sim}500{\mu}m$ diameter ${\beta}-TCP$ 0.25g in one side, which was soaked with rhBMP-2, and autogenous bone was grafted on another side as a positive control. Second group of 8 rabbit, only ${\beta}-TCP$ was grafted with same size and same manner. After 2, 4, 8, and 12 weeks, specimen was taken for microscopic immunohiostochemical and histomorphometric analysis. Result: Grafting ${\beta}-TCP$ with rhBMP show the early formation of the bone regenerative factor (BMP-4) and more quantity of new bone formation than only use of ${\beta}-TCP$ (8,12 week), even show less new bone formation than autogenous bone. Conclusion : The experimental study result that ${\beta}-TCP$ graft combination with rhBMP-2 as a delivery system is an effective with osteoinductive capacity and biodegradable properties, so that provide clinical availibility of composite use in reconstruction of bony defect.
