Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Artificial biomaterials can be used for prosthetic replacement, transplantation, reconstruction or regeneration of the patella by using tissue engineering technology to repair severe patella injury.
OBJECTIVE: To review the achievement in tissue engineering fixation and bone scaffold materials and to focus on the application of artificial biomaterials in repair of patellar injury.
METHODS: A computer search of CNKI and PubMed (1970-01/2011-04) was performed for articles related to repair of patellar injury and biomaterials using the keywords of “patella; materials; treatment” in Chinese and English. Totally 27 articles were included.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: In the treatment of patella injury, fixation materials were used firstly; absorbable fixation materials, in particular, showed a clear advantage. A single natural material or synthetic material is difficult to meet the needs of clinical application, composite materials and bionic bone prepared by the appropriate combination of several single materials have obtained good results in clinic.
