Fracture healing under the conditions of osteogenesis local focus stimulation in contralateral limb

Abstract

The effect of local osteogenesis focus that was produced by osteoperforation in the contralateral limb on tibial fracture repair with transosseous osteosynthesis was studied experimentally in mature Wistar rats using the techniques of roentgenology, light microscopy, scanning electron microscopy and electron probe microanalysis. It was established that osteoperforation activated reparative osteogenesis, accelerated compactization and reorganization of newly formed bone tissue, increased the degree of its maturity and provided for formation of proper regenerated bone in earlier periods. Therefore this technique can be recommended to optimize osteoreparation in combination with other techniques of bone fracture conservative and surgical treatment.
