Tissue Regeneration
Background
| Tissue regeneration of defects in human represent a new field of orthopaedic and trauma surgery. Especially bone defects, due to commitment fractures are very demanding situations to osteosynthesis material, bone healing and trauma surgeons. Bone substitutes were developed, but long term outcome and behaviour in situ is not known. Therefore, our focus lies in incorporation and improvement of new developed substitutes for tissue regeneration. |

Current Projects
- Ingrowth of synthetic scaffolds (RegImplant)
(radiological and histomorphological characterisation)
- Cartilage defect model in sheep
- Development of an osteoporotic pig model (funded by DFG grant)
- Metaphysael osteoporotic fracture healing (funded by DFG grant)
- clinical treatment algorithms of proximal femoral fragility fractures
Group Leader
| Stefan Grote (MD, Trauma and Orthopaedic Surgeon) studied medicine in Cologne. After having finished his training in the University of Cologne Hospital Merheim, he becomes a certified surgeon in 2005, further more he certified in orthopaedic and trauma surgery in 2007. Since 2008 he is working as senior consultant in the Department of Surgery LMU University of Munich. In 2009 he became Leader of Knee- and Sporttraumatology section. Since 2008 he has started working on tissue regeneration and fragility fracture healing and became Member of the Experimental surgery and regenerative Medicine Team (ExperiMed). |
