Brief Summary
The goal of this study is to evaluate the bone regeneration capacity of BM-MSC (Bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cells), in patients with nonunion. BM-MSC cultured are seeded on a collagen scaffold, included into autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP) clot, and implanted in the nonunion bone defect.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Clinical evaluation
Time of surgical wound evolution, surgically intervened limb evolution, movility
Baseline, 1 and 7 days. 1, 2 and 6 months. 1 and 2 years
Bone consolidation
Time of development changes in bone consolidation by radiological studies

Study Arms (2)
Autologuos MSCs transplantation in nonunion defects
EXPERIMENTALAutologuos MSCs harvested and cultured in osteogenic medium are seeded on collagen scaffold, and mixed with autologous rich plasma clot. The MSCs construct (MSCs/Col/PRP clot), is implanted in the nonunion defect.
Allogeneic MSCs transplantation in nonunion defects
EXPERIMENTALAllogeneic MSCs harvested and cultured in osteogenic medium are seeded on collagen scaffold, and mixed with autologous rich plasma clot. The MSCs construct (MSCs/Col/PRP clot), is implanted in the nonunion defect.
Interventions
At surgery, fibrotic tissue is removed from the nonunion sites. MSCs/Col/PRP clots are implanted in the site of nonunion. Patients received conventional orthopedic treatment as they needed (osteotomy, external and/or internal fixation systems, etc.)
