SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR INTRAOPERATIVE BONE FUSION
20220241079 · 2022-08-04 ·

An in-situ fusion system includes at least one robotic arm; a bioprinter; a polymerization tool; at least one processor; and a memory storing instructions for execution by the at least one processor. The instructions, when executed, cause the at least one processor to: control the at least one robotic arm to prepare at least two bone surfaces to support cellular growth; cause the bioprinter to print, from a scaffold material, a scaffold between the at least two bone surfaces; and cause the polymerization tool to induce the scaffold material to polymerize.

BONE AUGMENTATION UTILIZING MUSCLE-DERIVED PROGENITOR COMPOSITIONS IN BIOCOMPATIBLE MATRIX, AND TREATMENTS THEREOF

The present invention provides muscle-derived progenitor cells that show long-term survival following transplantation into body tissues and which can augment non-soft tissue following introduction (e.g. via injection, transplantation, or implantation) into a site of non-soft tissue (e.g. bone) when combined with a biocompatible matrix, preferably SIS. The invention further provides methods of using compositions comprising muscle-derived progenitor cells with a biocompatible matrix for the augmentation and bulking of mammalian, including human, bone tissues in the treatment of various functional conditions, including osteoporosis, Paget's Disease, osteogenesis imperfecta, bone fracture, osteomalacia, decrease in bone trabecular strength, decrease in bone cortical strength and decrease in bone density with old age.
