Trial summary

This study aims to evaluate the sufficiency of Khoury shell technique for reconstruction of alveolar cleft. Khoury technique was carried out using cortical bone shell fixed away from alveolar bone using two micro-screws, which was harvested from anterior iliac bone crest. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Shell Technique for Reconstruction of Alveolar Cleft: Retrospective Study

This study aims to evaluate the sufficiency of Khoury shell technique for reconstruction of alveolar cleft. Khoury technique was carried out using cortical bone shell fixed away from alveolar bone using two micro-screws, which was harvested from anterior iliac bone crest. The gap between the shell cortical bone and the native alveolar bone was filled by cancellous bone which was harvested from anterior iliac crest bone. The whole graft was covered by collagen membrane. The volumetric bone gain of the defect was determined via CBCT.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Alveolar ridge graftingProcedure or surgery

    Alveolar ridge grafting was carried out using anterior iliac crest bone graft. Khoury shell technique was the method of ridge reconstruction via a cortical bone shell was fixed away from alveolar ridge using two micro-screws and the gap created was filled by cancellous bone

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Alveolar ridge grafting in people with Alveolar Cleft and Alveolar Ridge Cleft, run by October 6 University at 1 site in Kuwait.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Mar 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Kuwait. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Volumetric bone gain (time frame: 4 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 12 Mar 2024.
