We present a narrative review focusing on the therapeutic potential of mesenchymal stromal cell-derived extracellular vesicles (MSC-EVs) in regenerating bone defects, particularly those resulting from surgical treatment of malignant bone and soft tissue tumors. These large bone defects pose significant challenges for reconstruction and functional recovery, highlighting the need for innovative regenerative strategies.Background: MSCs, which can differentiate into various cell types, are known for their immunosuppressive properties and ability to promote tissue repair. MSC-EVs, rich in bioactive molecules like microRNAs and proteins, play a crucial role in bone regeneration by mediating intercellular communication and modulating inflammation.Methods: This narrative review compiles data from various studies, including systematic reviews and individual research, focusing on the application of MSC-EVs in bone defect treatment. It examines the characteristics, mechanisms of action, and therapeutic effects of MSC-EVs, as well as the microRNAs involved in bone regeneration.Results: The findings indicate that MSC-EVs can enhance both osteogenesis and angiogenesis, highlighting their potential as promising candidates for clinical applications in bone defects. However, many mechanisms remain unclear; therefore, further investigation is needed.Conclusions: The review emphasizes the potential of MSC-EVs in improving patient outcomes for severe bone defects. It also highlights future challenges, including formulation, standardization, safety, and delivery methods, particularly in conjunction with biomaterials. Overall, MSC-EVs represent a significant advancement in regenerative medicine for bone defects.
