Introduction. Coagulation and blood clot formation in bone defects is
sometimes followed by retraction of a blood clot and serum extrusion, thus
producing peripheral serum-filled spaces between bony wall and coagulum. This
can result in a higher incidence of postoperative complications.
Stabilization of blood coagulum, which enables successful primary healing,
may be accomplished by autotransplantation, allotransplantation,
xenotransplantation, or application of autologous platelet concentrate and
concentrated growth factors (CGF). Case report. Two patients with large
cystic lesions in the upper and lower jaw were presented. In both patients
postoperative bony defects were filled with autologous fibrin rich blocks
containing CGF. Postoperative course passed uneventfully. Conclusion.
Application of fibrin rich blocks containing CGF is one of the possible
methods for reconstruction of bone defects. CGF can be applied alone or mixed
with a bone graft. The method is relatively simple, without risk of
transmissible and allergic diseases and economically feasible.
