外源性因素影响髁突生长改建的研究进展

髁突是下颌骨的一个重要生长区,以软骨内成骨的方式参与下颌骨的生长。髁突软骨属于继发性软骨,既受遗传因素的影响,又受应力、药物等局部因素的影响。为了促进下颌骨的生长,各种外源性局部因素被用于改变髁突软骨的生物学环境,以刺激髁突的软骨内成骨过程。本文就外源性因素影响髁突生长改建的研究作一综述,以期为下颌骨发育不足患者的治疗提供一定的参考。

Progress in exogenous factors affecting the growth and remodeling of condylar process

Condyle is a critical growth region of the mandible where mandible by endochondral ossification occurs. Con-dylar cartilage belongs to the secondary cartilage, which is not only affected by genetic factors but also by stress, drug intake, and other local factors. To promote the growth of the mandible, various exogenous and local factors were used to alter the biological environment of the condylar cartilage to stimulate endochondral ossification. This article reviews studies on the influence of exogenous factors on condylar growth and reconstruction. This literature review will provide a reference point for the treatment of patients with mandibular retraction.
