Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Application of recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 in bone trauma still has limitations, and its efficacy and safety remain unclear.  
OBJECTIVE: To review the application progress of recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 in limb bone trauma, and to fully understand the efficacy and safety of recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2, so as to provide guidance for clinical practice.  
METHODS: “Recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2, fracture, bone trauma, bone defect, bone injuries, femur, tibia, ulna, long bone, complications” in English and Chinese, respectively were used as keywords. The literature concerning the application progress of recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 in limb bone trauma published from 2008 to 2018 was retrieved in PubMed, Medline, Embase, CNKI, WanFang, and VIP databases. Sixty eligible articles were included after excluding repeated and irrelevant studies.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 has achieved satisfactory results in the treatment of femoral and tibial fractures, and bone defects, but less in the treatment of upper limb long bone fractures and extremity trauma. With the increasing number of related research, the safety and effectiveness of recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 have become controversial. In the future, more ideal carriers and synergists need to be explored, and the optimal dosage of recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 should be determined to ensure the efficacy and reduce complications and financial burden of patients.

Key words: recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2, bone trauma, bone defects, bone fractures, bone nonunion, osteonecrosis, bone regeneration technique, bone healing
