    Johanna Tiainen
    Department of Surgery, Oulu University Hospital, Finland
    J Craniofac Surg 13:427-33. 2002
    ..Nevertheless, it is evident that the ciprofloxacin-containing screws can be applied in craniomaxillofacial surgery in nonload-bearing or slightly load-bearing applications...

    Johanna Tiainen
    Department of Surgery, Oulu University Hospital, Oulu, Finland
    J Craniofac Surg 13:538-43. 2002
    ..Tacks seem to have a similar, perhaps even a little better, holding power to cranial bone as screws and can hence be recommended for clinical application, as the procedure saves time and, consequently, costs...

    J Biomed Mater Res B Appl Biomater 70:49-55. 2004
    ..No contraindications as regards their clinical use in craniofacial surgery was found when these screws were studied in the cranial bones of rabbits...

    ..quot; Ciprofloxacin-releasing SR-PLGA 80/20 screws elicited a mild inflammatory reaction but did not interfere with osteoblast activity. No complications were seen when implanted in cranial bone of rabbit...

    Johanna Tiainen
    Department of Surgery, Oulu University Hospital, Oulu, Finland
    J Craniofac Surg 20:58-61. 2009
    ..The cause of failure in all cases was barb breakage. Ciprofloxacin-releasing SR-PLGA 80/20 tacks seem to have a similar holding power to cranial bone as plain SR-PLGA (80/20) tacks but have additional advantage of ciprofloxacin release...
