With various injuries and operations, bone tissue may lack its own regenerative ability, which leads to the emergence of the term "critical bone defect". A critical bone defect (KCD) is a bone defect that is unable to heal spontaneously during life. The magnitude of the critical bone defect in humans is ≥ 2.5 cm, in mice ≥ 4 mm. The most promising material for the treatment of CD is the use of special photosensitive compositions based on modified polymers of natural origin with various bioactive additives and cells capable of forming a cross-linked gel under the action of light. In situ photo–stitching - that is, applying a liquid photocomposition directly to the CD site with subsequent photo–curing - allows you to completely fill in the defect and does not require the creation of preliminary 3D models and fitting the material to the required shapes and sizes.
