Scientists at the N.V. Sklifosovsky Institute of Emergency Medicine have developed a bone graft for the treatment of patients with skull injuries.

The graft serves to replace bone defects of the cranial vault and allows the introduction of substances that accelerate cell growth and vascular development, which stimulates the healing process.

MOSCOW, October 3 – RIA Novosti. A bone graft for the treatment of patients with skull injuries was developed by scientists from the N.V. Sklifosovsky Institute of Emergency Medicine, head of Rospatent Yuri Zubov said in an interview with RIA Novosti.

“Unique joint and bone implants are appearing that do not cause rejection by the body. For example, a bone graft created by scientists at the N.V. Sklifosovsky Institute of Emergency Medicine for the treatment of patients with skull injuries,” Zubov said.

According to the head of Rospatent, this graft is used to replace bone defects of the cranial vault. The uniqueness of the development lies in the fact that substances that accelerate cell growth and vascular development can be introduced into a bone graft prepared using this method. In addition, this technique stimulates the engraftment process.
