Beals C, Dupont K, Gross C, Safranski D
J Foot Ankle Surg . 2023 Apr; 62(5):812-815. PMID: 37088274
The use of subtalar arthrodesis procedures has been widely implemented to relieve hindfoot issues after failure of conservative treatments; however, fusion failures persist in some patients with certain risk factors....

Beals C, Wong G, Dupont K, Safranski D
J Foot Ankle Surg . 2022 Apr; 62(1):7-13. PMID: 35370055
Midfoot and subtalar arthrodesis surgeries are performed to correct foot deformities and relieve arthritic pain. These procedures often employ intramedullary (IM) devices. The aim of the present study was to...

Smith K, Dupont K, Safranski D, Blair J, Buratti D, Zeetser V, et al.
Tech Orthop . 2017 Mar; 31(3):181-189. PMID: 28337049
Three-dimensional (3-D) printing offers many potential advantages in designing and manufacturing plating systems for foot and ankle procedures that involve small, geometrically complex bony anatomy. Here, we describe the design...

Evans N, Torstrick F, Lee C, Dupont K, Safranski D, Chang W, et al.
Acta Biomater . 2014 Dec; 13:159-67. PMID: 25463499
Despite its widespread clinical use in load-bearing orthopedic implants, polyether-ether-ketone (PEEK) is often associated with poor osseointegration. In this study, a surface-porous PEEK material (PEEK-SP) was created using a melt...

Boerckel J, Kolambkar Y, Stevens H, Lin A, Dupont K, Guldberg R
J Orthop Res . 2011 Dec; 30(7):1067-75. PMID: 22170172
Fracture healing is highly sensitive to mechanical conditions; however, the effects of mechanical loading on large bone defect regeneration have not been evaluated. In this study, we investigated the effects...

Johnson M, Boerckel J, Dupont K, Guldberg R
Clin Orthop Relat Res . 2011 Aug; 469(11):3111-7. PMID: 21863396
Background: Bone defects and fracture nonunions remain a substantial challenge for clinicians. Grafting procedures are limited by insufficient volume and donor site morbidity. As an alternative, biomaterial scaffolds functionalized through...

Dupont K, Boerckel J, Stevens H, Diab T, Kolambkar Y, Takahata M, et al.
Cell Tissue Res . 2011 Jun; 347(3):575-88. PMID: 21695398
Biomaterial scaffolds functionalized to stimulate endogenous repair mechanisms via the incorporation of osteogenic cues offer a potential alternative to bone grafting for the treatment of large bone defects. We first...

Kolambkar Y, Boerckel J, Dupont K, Bajin M, Huebsch N, Mooney D, et al.
Bone . 2011 May; 49(3):485-92. PMID: 21621027
Osteogenic growth factors that promote endogenous repair mechanisms hold considerable potential for repairing challenging bone defects. The local delivery of one such growth factor, bone morphogenetic protein (BMP), has been...

Boerckel J, Kolambkar Y, Dupont K, Uhrig B, Phelps E, Stevens H, et al.
Biomaterials . 2011 Apr; 32(22):5241-51. PMID: 21507479
Delivery of recombinant proteins is a proven therapeutic strategy to promote endogenous repair mechanisms and tissue regeneration. Bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2) has been used to promote spinal fusion and repair...

Kolambkar Y, Dupont K, Boerckel J, Huebsch N, Mooney D, Hutmacher D, et al.
Biomaterials . 2010 Sep; 32(1):65-74. PMID: 20864165
The treatment of challenging fractures and large osseous defects presents a formidable problem for orthopaedic surgeons. Tissue engineering/regenerative medicine approaches seek to solve this problem by delivering osteogenic signals within...
