Welcome!
Welcome to the Society for Biomaterials Surgical Video Library!
The surgical video library was created to bridge a difficult gap between classroom theory and clinical application. Students and researchers who are involved in designing biomaterials for successful clinical use should be aware of not only the need for such a therapy but the various constraints and parameters involved with each implant and its proper placement exness. Showing video clips of surgical procedures involving biomaterials addresses this issue, and may both enhance and stimulate learning in the classroom. Through this, students and researchers can develop more clinically relevant biomaterials while attaining a deeper motivation and gaining a more global perspective for their area of research.

Anterior Cervical Corpectomy, Fussion and Instrumentation
Below the skin, the trachea and esophagus are towards the midline, while the carotid artery and jugular vein is towards the outside. In between these structures is the interval where the anterior portion of the spinal bones (vertebrae) can be felt. Retractors are placed to hold aside the muscles, as well as the other vital structures in the neck. A sharp scalpel is then used to cut through the disc. The disc is then removed with a “grabbing” instrument called a pituitary rongeur. After the discs are removed, a motorized instrument called a bur is used to remove the anterior portion of the vertebral body. The bur as well as other sharp instruments are used to remove bone until the covering over the spinal cord (dura) is seen. By removal of this bone, the pressure on the spinal cord and nerves is removed.
Anterior Cruciate Ligament Surgery - SEMINAR
Dr. Roger Larson explains the new medical techniques used to repair knee injuries. The program focuses on ACL injuries featuring four patients who suffered knee and joint pain or damage. The discussion with the patients includes how the knee was injured and which surgery and rehabilitation treatments were used to bring back pain-free movement and use of the knee.

Autologous Bone Graft Harvesting
Harvesting bone graft from the back of the waistline (posterior iliac crest) or front of the waistline (anterior iliac crest) to help create new bone growth in another area of the body. The posterior iliac crest bone graft is frequently obtained through an incision over the back of the waistline. Strips of dense cortical bone and less dense cancellous bone are removed from the outer portion of the iliac crest. The anterior iliac crest bone graft is obtained through a skin incision in the front of the waistline. This dense cortical bone is often used for placement in the anterior cervical spine.
Amplification of Osteogenic Cells From Human Embryonic Stem Cells
This poster presentation describes how omitting the embryoid body step can be used to significantly amplify the differentiation efficiency from human embryonic stem cells.

Examination of the Effects of Thrombin on the Migration of Osteogenic Cells
This poster describes how thrombin interacts with osteogenic cells. Specifically, we found that thrombin preferentially stimulates the migration of osteoprogenitor cells compared to more differentitated progeny.
