Microsurgical Reconstruction of Large Oncologic Chest Wall Defects for Locally Advanced Breast Cancer or Osteoradionecrosis: A Retrospective Review of 26 Cases over a 5-Year Period.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) present an exciting new tool in the field of peripheral nerve regeneration due to their close embryonic origin. In this study, we examined their potential in pigs, using biodegradable collagen conduits filled with DPSCs. To our knowledge, this is the first time DPCSs are tested...
