Brief Summary:
This purpose of this study is to measure the strength of tissue allografts that have been in the body various lengths of time
Detailed Description:
Allograft bone is the primary source of graft material for large skeletal defects resulting from trauma disease oncological resection or reconstruction of failed total joint arthroplasties The physical characteristics of such grafts after various intervals of remodeling and incorporation in vivo have never been studied
The purpose of this study is to obtain tissue from allografts retrieved at autopsy at amputation for oncological complications and from patients undergoing revision procedures for failed allograft transplantation We will evaluate the mechanical properties histomorphometric indices and presence of microfractures
Our hypotheses are
histomorphometric parameters of porosity and microfracture density will predict allograft strength
microfracture density will be correlated with time in vivo and allograft strength
the rate of host-allograft nonunion and fracture will correlate with radiation therapy and chemotherapy
The retrieved tissue will be processed using standard undecalcified histology and quantitatively assessed for degree of incorporation allograft porosity and microfracture density The biomechanical characteristics of the bulk allograft and allograft-host junction will be quantified and compared to allograft bone prior to transplantation
