Introduction
Tissue engineering is the attempt to produce complex biological structures and tissues from simpler structures, such as cells. The aim here is to produce functional constructs in order to restore destroyed tissue or even entire organs. In this process, biological tissue is articially grown by cultivating cells. The cells are then stimulated to form tissue with the aid of scaf­folds, inuence of growth factors, and mechani­cal stimuli.
There are four elementary components for tis-
sue engineering:
• Scaffold
• Living cells

Tissue engineering and regenerative medicine is a relatively new, expanding, and multidisci­plinary eld (for review, see Meyer, Meyer [1]). Whereas the term tissue engineering focuses on the use of cells and scaffolds, the term regenera­tive medicine is connected with the use of stem cells. Different approaches to tissue engineering can be distinguished. Thus, there is an invivo and an in vitro approach. In addition, grafts can be divided according to their origin and their rela­tionship to the recipient into:
• Xenogeneic, i.e., originating from another liv-
ing being (for example, heart valves, such as
TAVIs, of bovine or porcine origin)
• Allogenic, i.e., derived from a living organism
of the same species (e.g., kidney transplanta-
tion between two human beings)
• Autologous, i.e., from the patient himself
(e.g., skin coverage in the context of a free ap
reconstruction)
Currently, there are already some medical applications. In particular, tissues with little or no vascular supply are leading the way, as there is little to no immune response here. For example, tissue engineering is already reliably and com­mercially used in vascular endoprosthetics and

heart valve replacement as endothelial tissue [2]. Another well-studied tissue type is cartilage tis­sue [3]. Even in living organisms, these structures are composed of only one cell type and are largely avascular. Other complex organs, such as liver parenchyma, have not yet been articially produced. This is partly because these organs are composed of many different cells. These include the diffuse stroma, specialized cells, and more. However, tissue engineering is developing rap­idly in medicine and is capable of revolutionizing treatments in the future. In principle, they do not repair defective tissues or organs, but replace defective structures [4, 5]. In 2018, for example, Israeli doctors have already succeeded in grow­ing tissue for a defect of the tibia from a patient’s own fat tissue and then successfully implanting it. In this regard, bone repair already represents an important discipline in reconstructive orofa­cial surgery and is very well studied (for review, see Shanbhag, Suliman [6]). In the current ther­apy of reconstructive skeletal surgery, substitutes such as autografts or allografts are used. However, these techniques have disadvantages. First, there is donor-site morbidity (e.g., at the harvest site in the retromolar space) in treatments with auto­grafts. Second, allografts have disadvantages such as the lack of donors [7, 8] as well as immu­nologic concerns; for example, infectious dis­eases may be transmitted or complications due to
immunosuppression may occur [9, 10]. Synthetic materials made of metal, ceramic, or polymer can also replace bony structures [11], but each has disadvantages. In contrast, biomaterials offer dis­tinct advantages in clinical applications. They contain living cells and can induce tissue growth. In addition, they possess biological plasticity. Current studies are attempting to produce hybrid materials that combine articial materials with living cells. In this way, the replacement tissue should remain biologically active and retain physiological functions after implantation [12,
13].
Bone tissue engineering can be used in a vari­ety of ways to restore, preserve, or even alter tis­sue function [14, 15]. Three basic therapeutic principles underlie this [1618] (for review, see Eltom, Zhong [19]):
1. In situ tissue regeneration, in which new tis-
sue formation is stimulated by specic scaf­folds or external stimuli that stimulate endogenous cells and promote local tissue repair (Fig.21.1)
2. Implantation of fresh isolated cells, in which
single cells from the patient or a donor are injected directly into the damaged region (Fig.21.2)
3. Implantation of bone-like tissues prepared
invitro from cells and supporting tissue

In tissue implantation, a complete three­dimensional tissue is grown invitro from autol­ogous or donor cells in a scaffold to be implanted after reaching “maturity” (Fig.21.3).
The aim of this chapter is to explain the above techniques in more detail and to highlight alter­natives to extracorporeal techniques that may be important for clinical decision-making.

Tissue transplantation
Clinically applied bone tissue engineering aims to regenerate bone in two ways: [1] (1) in a simple approach to replace bone with bone cells, bone cells in combination with a protein scaffold, or bone cells with a mineralized scaffold (Fig. 21.5, left), or in a complex approach to replace bone with a multicellular mineralized tis­sue construct that mimics bone on a larger scale (Fig.21.5, right).
Cartilage tissue engineering appears to be simpler in some respects (Fig.21.6), particularly due to the avascular structure of the tissue.
The use of autologous bone for reconstruction of bony defects is currently the gold standard. Two different approaches can be distinguished. The activation and stimulation (augmentation) of the already existing host cell population and the transplantation of whole bone tissue (Fig.21.4).
Bone and cartilage tissue engineering plays a central role in the reconstruction of cranial defects or deciencies. Because skeletal bones have many more bone tissue components than cartilage components, bone tissue engineering approaches are much more common.
Bone Augmentation
The fact that augmentation of local host cells effec­tively improves bone healing has already been dem­onstrated in many studies [2123]. However, the effect is strongly dependent on the condition of the defect site. Very good results can be expected with healthy hard and soft tissue. In this environment, the host cells can expand well. Nevertheless, if the wound conditions are poor, for example due to local tissue irritation or even necrosis, the prognosis for this repair strategy is poor.

Membrane Techniques
Membranes can signicantly improve defect healing and represent a popular and widely used technique in maxillofacial surgery as guided bone regeneration (GBR) [24]. Membranes act as a barrier between the surrounding soft tissue and the bone defect. This allows the local host cells to thrive protected from external inuences by the soft tissue [25]. Guided bone regeneration has proven to be a successful therapeutic concept in controlled animal studies as well as in many clin­ical trials [2628]. Basic studies have also estab­lished that the healing pattern in this type of tissue healing resembles the physiological steps known from de novo bone formation [29]: after the formation of a blood clot, the invasion of osteoprogenitor cells, and their differentiation into osteoblasts, the extracellular matrix (ECM) subsequently mineralizes to form lamellar bone. Despite the promising results from studies and daily practice, this type of augmentation is also highly dependent on defect spread and geometry. If a bone defect is limited by more than two walls, even large defects can be successfully treated by GBR [30]. However, geometrically more com-
plex or larger defect sites represent severe limita­tions of this technique.
Biophysical Stimuli
It is assumed that the bone absorbs many external inuences and thus specically controls regener­ation. This is known not least from the onset of bone atrophy when no load is applied, e.g., in immobile, senile patients or also after tooth removal in the jawbone, which then no longer experiences any mechanical load [31, 32]. Biophysical effects, such as distraction, use of ultrasound, and electromagnetic elds, are important factors in the regulation of new bone formation [33]. The application of these stimula­tion methods has therefore entered clinical prac­tice. The efcacy of all these measures has been conrmed by many randomized clinical trials [34] (for review, see Massari, Benazzo [35]).
Ultrasound
When biophysical stimuli are applied by ultra­sound, adjacent anatomical structures such as joints, muscles, and ligaments are minimally deformed and deected. The procedure is highly

dependent on the biological situation in the patient and on the technical application of the stimuli. Therefore, for biophysical stimuli, the dose, timing, and method of application must be carefully determined and validated. Currently, the science and development are still in their infancy, with some clinical trials and animal studies already showing promise (for review, see [36]).
Electromagnetic Fields
The inuence due to electric eld exposure has already been well studied [3741]. The electri­cal stimuli act on various levels of the patient’s anatomy and biology, i.e., on the organ level, the tissue level, the cell level, and even the molecu­lar level. However, when considering the indi­vidual levels, the inuence on each other must not be disregarded. Accordingly, one can con­sider the response of electrical stimuli to the whole bone, the surrounding tissue, or the indi­vidual osteocyte.
Due to this heterogeneous approach, it has not yet been possible to create a clinically applicable concept despite extensive research efforts.
Distraction Osteogenesis
Distraction osteogenesis is a widely used thera­peutic option to autologously augment local bone [42]. This technique makes it possible to achieve new bone formation even after growth has been completed. The surrounding tissue, soft tissues, and vascular supply are adapted to the distrac­tion. The principle of this technique goes back to the Russian surgeon G.A. Ilizarov, who discov­ered this procedure rather accidentally in the 1950s [43].
Technically, a fracture gap must rst be cre­ated iatrogenically. The two fracture fragments are then anchored to a “distractor,” which allows the fragment ends to be gradually pushed apart. A physiological healing process is created with the regenerative tissue (callus), which subsequently grows along with the fracture. The regeneration tissue corresponds histologically almost to the fetal tissue growth or the usual fracture gap heal­ing [44, 45]. After reaching the desired length, the stable bone can now develop.
Although the biomechanical, histological, and ultrastructural changes have been largely studied, the molecular mechanisms contribut­ing to bone neogenesis have not been fully explored. However, there is increasing evi­dence that osteocytes and progenitor cells, as well as angioneogenesis, contribute to bone neogenesis [46]. Recent studies have focused intensively on intercellular communication and cytokines during distraction osteogenesis [47, 48]. Certain genes encoding cytokines were found to be amplified.
Due to the long clinical application in various medical disciplines, the surgical procedure of distraction osteogenesis has been signicantly rened [42]. Thus, distraction osteogenesis is one of the most important therapeutic approaches in the treatment of bone augmentation (for review, see Sahoo, Issar [49] and Hopper, Ettinger [50]).
Biological Stimuli
As described in the chapter Distraction Osteogenesis, many basic studies indicate that cytokines have a decisive inuence on bone and cartilage healing and bone neogenesis. Therefore, part of the research is specically focused with the question of what potency and efcacy bioac­tive factors have on bone neogenesis [28, 51]. Among cytokines, growth factors in particular play a major role [5255]:
• Transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β)
– Bone matrix protein (BMP) – Growth differentiation factors (GDF)
• Insulin-like growth factor (IGF)
• Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)
Different healing environments induce spe­cic growth factors that form different bone tis­sues. In the healing of transverse fractures in long bones, cortical bone is most needed. In the aug­mentation of maxillary bones, on the other hand, cancellous bone is required above all.
It is assumed that different healing approaches are followed depending on the presence of the individual growth factors and their interaction with each other (e.g., inhibi­tion and amplication).

V. Kerkfeld et al.
Three different treatment strategies have become established in clinical and scientic application:
1. Purication and mixing of human and animal
proteins from cortical bone [56]
2. Use of recombinant proteins [57, 58]
3. Administration of DNA encoding a growth
factor (gene therapy) [5961]
Among these, the third strategy is still the least developed but is likely to be promising due to steady advances in the eld of biotechnology. Presumably, not only one therapeutic strategy will establish itself as the best, but each has its specic advantages and disadvantages. In the end, manufacturing costs as well as practicality must also be factored into the decision-making process.
Transplantation
In contrast to augmentation, transplantation fol­lows the approach that autologous tissue is taken from a healthy donor site and implanted at the diseased site. In this way, even larger defects can be treated adequately. However, transplantation can lead to secondary morbidity of the donor site. The bone defect is decisive in the choice of trans­plantation procedure.
Cell Transplantation Approach
Bone grafts can be classied according to their vascularization status (Fig. 21.4). Non­vascularized grafts are mainly cancellous bone and cortical bone. Vascularized grafts can be divided into pedicled bone grafts and free bone grafts. While smaller bone defects can be treated adequately with non-vascularized bone grafts, vascularized bone grafts should be used for larger bone defects.
Non-vascularized Grafts
Non-vascularized aps are very popular among surgical practitioners. Cortical or cancellous bone chips are often used for minor bone defects. In principle, any bony harvesting site is possible
and can be individually selected by the practitio­ner and patient. In clinical practice, the iliac crest graft and facial skull grafts (e.g., from the man­dible) have become the most popular. However, it must be noted that the facial skull may have bet­ter long-term survival of the transplant due to its intramembranous ossication, as animal studies show membranous bone to be less susceptible to resorption [39]. In clinical routine, it is important that the grafts are xed without external mechan­ical action. Accordingly, it is also important to sufciently avoid the formation of hematomas. In addition, the grafts are susceptible to infections and the survival of the cells as well as the possi­ble extent of resorption cannot be clearly pre­dicted. Resorption is largely dependent on graft volume, time to loading, and condition of the graft bed.
Vascularized Grafts
The use of vascularized bone grafts has opened a tremendous advance in the treatment of bony defects. A distinction can be made between pedi­cled aps and microvascularized, free aps. Bone can be used with or without its surrounding soft tissue, whereby the surrounding soft tissue has good effects regarding healing. It adequately shields both mechanical and infectious external factors and can also replace lost soft tissue [62].
Among pedicled osteocutaneous or osteomus­cular aps, some donor sites have become estab­lished in clinical routine [63]:
• M. sternocleidomastoid in combination with
the clavicle [64]
• M. trapezius with parts of the scapula
[6567]
• M. pectoralis with part of the rib or sternum
[6870]
• M. latissimus dorsi [71]
• M. temporalis with calvarian bone [72, 73]
However, freely vascularized bone grafts also offer very good results in the treatment of larger bone defects. In this case, a soft tissue paddle is also harvested together with the vascularized bone. Several proven donor sites have emerged in clinical routine [74]:
