Resumen
BENITEZ HERRERA, Alberto y PEREZ, Rafael Mena. Stem cells implant in hip fracture. Case presentation. Rev haban cienc méd [online]. 2018, vol.17, n.6, pp.943-948. ISSN 1729-519X.
Introduction:
Hip fractures are very common in the elderly. It is known that the first phase of fracture healing is a local hematoma, and if it is enriched with autologous stem cells, hip fracture healing time could be diminished due to the great capacity these cells have to turn into other types of tissues.
Objective:
To show the advantages of the stem cells implant in a patient with a hip fracture
Case presentation:
A patient with a hip fracture underwent surgery during the first 24 hours after fracture and during the surgical procedure, monocular stem cells obtained from his pelvis were implanted.
Conclusions:
The feasibility of the stem cells implant in a hip fracture without complications and earlier healing was demonstrated.
