Proteomic and Molecular Analysis of Viable Bone Debris From Foot and Ankle Osteotomies: Implications for Autologous Grafting
The results could serve as a foundation for repurposing previously discarded bone debris as autologous bone grafts for reimplantation in minimally invasive orthopaedic procedures to potentially enhance bone tissue healing. To confirm clinical relevance, further well-controlled trials are required to establish whether these findings improve bone healing rates and related patient-reported outcomes.
