  • Aim : The ultimate goal of periodontal treatment is regeneration of periodontium that have been lost due to inflammatory periodontal disease. Recently, Silicon contained Coralline Hydroxyapatite and Beta Tricalcium Phosphate bone substitute have been introduced to achieve periodontal regeneration. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of the Silicon contained Coralline Hydroxyapatite and Beta Tricalcium Phosphate(BoneMedik-$DM^{(R)}$, Meta Biomed Co., Ltd. Oksan, Korea) on periodontal intrabony defects. Methods and materials : Clinical effects of Silicon contained Coralline Hydroxyapatite and Beta Tricalcium Phosphate implantation in intrabony defects were evaluated 6 months after surgery in Sixty-one intrabony defects from Fourty-six patients with chronic periodontitis. Twenty-nine experimental defects in twenty-five patients received the Silicon contained Coralline Hydroxyapatite and Beta Tricalcium Phosphate(test group), while Thirty-Three defects in twenty-one patients were treated with flap procedure only( control group). Comparative observation were done for preoperative and postoperative differences between control and experimental clinical parameters,-clinical attachment 10ss(CAL), probing depth(PD), bone probing depth(BPD), gingi val recession. Results : Postoperative improvements in CAL, PD, BPD were observed in both test and control groups(P<0.0l). However, the improvements in CAL, PD, BPD of the test group were significantly greater than control group. Conclusion : Healing of the both groups were uneventful during experimental periods. Use of Silicon contained Coralline Hydroxyapatite and Beta Tricalcium Phosphate in a flap operation resulted in significantly greater improvements in CAL, PD, and BPD over flap operation alone. Silicon contained Coralline Hydroxyapatite and Beta Tricalcium Phosphate will be good bone substitute materials for treatment of intrabony defects.

  • The purpose of the present investigation was to compare the effectiveness of porous hydroxyapatite (PHA) and coralline based porous calcium carbonate(PCC) as implant materials in human periodontal osseous defects. 10 adult patients having periodontitis and 2 similar angular osseous defects ${\ge}$5mm as verified by radiographic analysis and clinical probing depth ${\ge}$4mm were selected. The measurements were recorded just before surgery and after 6 month. Clinical parameters used in this study included gingival recession, pocket depth, probing attachment level, Sulcus Bleeding Index, Plaque Index, tooth mobility and bone defect depth measurements. After initial therapy, patients were treated with mucoperiosteal flap surgery. The contralateral bony defects in each patient randomly assigned to either bone graft material, one with PHA(Interpore 200) and the other with coralline based calcium carbonate(Biocoral). After 6 month both groups showed statistically significant reduction of pocket depth, Sulcus Bleeding Index, Plaque Index and significant improvement in probing attachment level. No statistically significant differences were found between the groups. There were 3.0mm or 68% of bone repair with PHA and 3.1mm, 61% with PCC. These values were likewise not significantly different. The data and clinical impression strongly suggest that both PHA and PCC are alloplastic implants with clinically apparent acceptance by the soft and hard tissue and that they can be used as bone graft materials successfully.

  • Grafting of glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) upon coralline hydroxyapatite in conjugation with demineralized bone matrix (CHA-DBM) using equal molar ratio of potassium persulfate/sodium metabisulfite redox initiating system was investigated in aqueous medium. The optimum reaction condition was standardized by varying the concentrations of backbone, monomer, initiator, temperature and time. The results obtained imply that the percent grafting was found to increase initially and then decrease in most of the cases. The optimum temperature and time were found to be 50 $^{\circ}C$ and 180 min, respectively, to obtain higher grafting yield. Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy and X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) method were employed for the proof of grafting. The FT-IR spectrum of grafted CHA-DBM showed epoxy groups at 905 and 853 $cm^{-1}$ / and ester carbonyl group at 1731 $cm^{-1}$ / of poly(glycidyl methacrylate) (PGMA) in addition to the characteristic absorptions of CHA-DBM, which provides evidence of the grafting. The XRD results clearly indicated that the crystallographic structure of the grafted CHA-DBM has not changed due to the grafting reaction. Further, no phase transformation was detected by the XRD analysis, which suggests that the PGMA is grafted only on the surface of CHA-DBM backbone. The grafted CHA-DBM will have better functionality because of their surface modification and hence they may be more useful in coupling of therapeutic agents through epoxy groups apart from being used as osteogenic material.

  • In order to prepare the porous hydroxyapatite (HA) ceramics with different porosity, interconnectivity, mechanical properties, surface chemistry and tissue response, several methods have been developed. Of the different forms of Porous HA ceramics which were prepared by various methods, only the coralline HA has undergone major clinical applications in orthopaedic, maxillofacial and ophthalmic surgery. In this study, totally synthetic macroporous HA ceramics with various pore size distribution were prepared. It is shown that the new reticulate HA ceramics, comprised of interconnected voids surmunded by a web of ceramic, have a morphology which mimics that of human trabecular bone.

  • Thirteen patients received a coralline hydroxyapatite sphere as a buried integrated ocular implant after enucleation surgery. The implant was modified by multiple drillings, 1 mm in diameter, to the center of the sphere to allow more rapid host tissue ingrowth. $^{99m}Tc$-MDP planar and tomographic bone scintigraphies were performed at various intervals after implantation (from 100 to 742 days after operation) to assess vascularization of the implant. All patients showed hot uptakes in the implants. These patients underwent a secondary drilling for the final motility peg application. The confirmation of vascular ingrowth was done by inspection of bleeding at the time of bleeding at the time of drilling from the center of the implant. Bleeding from the drilled implant was noted in all patients. In cnclusion, hot uptake in the implanted ocular hydroxyapatite implant accurately reflect vascular ingrowth into the implant.

  • Purpose: Complete fibrovascular ingrowth within the hydroxyapatite ocular implant is necessary for peg drilling which is performed to Prevent infection and to provide motility to the ocular prosthesis. We compared planar bone scintigraphy and SPECT for the evaluation of the vascularization within hydroxyapatite ocular implants. Materials and Methods: Seventeen patients (M:F: 12:5, mean age; $50.4{\pm}17.5$ years) who had received a coralline hydroxyapatite ocular implant after enucleation surgery were enrolled. Patients underwent Tc-99m MDP planar bone and SPECT imaging by dual head gamma camera after their implant surgery (interval: $197{\pm}81$ days). Uptake on planar and SPECT images was graded visually as less than (grade 1), equal to (grade 2), and greater than (grade 3) nasal bridge activity. Quantitative ratio of implanted to non-implanted intraorbital activity was also measured. Vascularization within hydroxyapatite implants was confirmed by slit lamp examination and ocular movement. Results: All but three patients were considered to be vascularized within hydroxyapatite implants. In visual analysis of planar image and SPECT, grade 1 was noted in 9/18 (50%) and 6/18 (33%), respectively. Grade 2 pattern was 7/18 (39%) and 4/18 (22%), and grade 3 pattern was 2/18 (11%) and 8/18 (44%) respectively. When grade 2 or 3 was considered to be positive for vascularization, the sensitivity of planar and SPECT imaging were 60% (9/15) and 80% (12/15), respectively. In 3 patients with incomplete vascularization, both planar and SPECT showed grade 1 uptake The orbital activity ratios on planar imaging were not significantly different between complete and incomplete vascularization ($1.96{\pm}0.87$ vs $1.17{\pm}0.08$, p>0.05), however, it was significantly higher on SPECT in patients with complete vascularization ($8.44{\pm}5.45$ vs $2.20{\pm}0.87$, p<0.05). Conclusion: In the assessment of fibrovascular ingrowth within ocular implants by Tc-99m MDP bone scintigraphy, SPECT image appears to be more effective than planar scintigraphy.

  • Brown-Sequard syndrome may be the result of penetrating injury to the spine, but many other etiologies have been described. This syndrome is most commonly seen with spinal trauma and extramedullary spinal neoplasm. A herniated cervical disc has been rarely reported as a cause of this syndrome. We present a case of a 28-year-old male patient diagnosed as large C3-C4 disc herniation with spinal cord compression. He presented with left hemiparesis and diminished sensation to pain and temperature in the right side below the C4 dermatome. Microdiscectomy and anterior cervical fusion with carbon fiber cage containing a core of granulated coralline hydroxyapatite was performed. After the surgery, rapid improvement of the neurologic deficits was noticed. We present a case of cervical disc herniation producing acute Brown-Sequard syndrome with review of pertinent literature.

  • Purpose: This study was to evaluate the clinical usefulness of $^{99m}Tc$-MDP bone scintigraphy for assessing vascular ingrowth into the ocular implants after enucleation or evisceration. Materials and Methods: Twenty-four patients (M:F=7:17, mean age: 36 years), who buried a coralline hydroxyapatite after uncomplicated enucleation or evisceration surgery were studied. Dynamic and static scintigraphy on the orbit fossa were obtained after injection of 740 MBq $^{99m}Tc$-MDP to evaluate the status of vascularization. The study was performed from the 3 to 33 weeks after surgery. According to the visual analysis, activity greater than nasal bridge was graded as 4, equal to the nasal bridge as 3, less than nasal bridge but greater than normal orbit as 2, greater than normal orbit but less than grade 2 as 1. Uptake ratio was also calculated by measuring the implants activity (H) and contralateral orbit activity (N). Grading score and uptake ratio were compared with clinical outcome of vascularization. Additionally, we also analyzed the vascularization status as time lapse between primary surgery and scintigraphic study and surgical methods. Results: Twenty-one patients who had bone scintigraphy at 11 weeks after surgery showed increased uptake above grade 2 and greater H/N ratio than 1.16. Of these, 19 patients who had drilling surgery for permanent peg application showed adequate bleeding during the procedure. The activity grade and uptake ratio were inversely correlated with vascular ingrowth. Higher than grade 2 or greater than 1.56 in H/N ratio seemed to be an indicator for better prognosis. Accomplishment of vascularization was not affected by the surgical way such as enucleation or evisceration. Conclusion: $^{99m}Tc$-MDP bone scintigraphy can be a useful method to evaluate the vascularized status of implants. Adequate time for $^{99m}Tc$-MDP bone scintigraphy may be 11-20 weeks after enucleation or evisceration.
