An ideal biomaterial for total vertebral body replacement should combine biological and mechanical properties, yet no current material fulfills all criteria. This pilot study explores the use of a novel three-dimensional (3D)-printed porous polylactic acid (PLA) implant for total L1 vertebral body  \nreplacement.  \nMethods: This study had four stages: first, design, optimization, and 3D printing of the PLA device;  \nsecond, in vitro evaluation of biocompatibility and cell growth using indirect cytotoxicity assay, direct cell viability assay, and cytochemical analysis via confocal microscopy; third, in vivo testing in 35 Wistar rats that underwent anterior retroperitoneal abdominal access for total L1 replacement with the PLA device; and finally, sequential histological analysis to assess osseointegration at 2, 4, and 6 months post-implantation.  \nA pixel-based algorithm quantified proportions of PLA material, inflammatory and granulation tissue, fibroblastic and cartilaginous tis","cbCaijuoQ1dGEnhY","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaijuoQ1dGEnhY","pdf",9932983,38,"English","# Background\n# Methods\n## In vitro evaluation\n## In vivo rat model and histology\n# Results\n# Conclusions","[{\"question\":\"What PLA implant is evaluated for total L1 vertebral body replacement?\",\"answer\":\"The study evaluates a porous, 3D-printed polylactic acid (PLA) implant designed for total L1 vertebral body replacement and produced through device design, optimization, and 3D printing.\"},{\"question\":\"How were the implant’s cellular and biocompatibility effects tested in vitro?\",\"answer\":\"In vitro testing used indirect cytotoxicity assay, direct cell viability assay, and cytochemical analysis via confocal microscopy to assess biocompatibility and cell growth.\"},{\"question\":\"What did the in vivo rat model and histological analysis show over time?\",\"answer\":\"In 35 Wistar rats, histology at 2, 4, and 6 months quantified osseointegration, showing decreasing PLA presence, inflammatory response trends, increasing woven bone and fibrocartilaginous tissue, and predominant mature trabecular bone at 6 months with continuous bone bridging at the interface in most rats.\"}]","L1 vertebral body replacement using 3D-printed polylactic acid bioimplants - in vitro cellular evaluation, in vivo rat model assessment, and histological analysis of implant osseointegration | PDF",1790734160,96]
