A new method of perfusion fixation for the rabbit femur.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We report a new method of perfusion fixation for the proximal one-third of the femur of the Japanese white rabbit. Fluids to flush the blood and fix the marrow were injected into the abdominal aorta and drained from the stump of the femur. The oozing of the fluids from the stumps guaranteed complete flushing and fixation. The new method facilitated fixation and decreased the volume of necessary fluids. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images of bone marrow fixed using the new method and using the conventional method did not differ. Large fat globules were not observed in the SEM specimens produced using either the new or the conventional method.

MRI evaluation of rabbit bone marrow after acute irradiation
Background: Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a safe modality and useful in characterizing normal and abnormal bone marrow (BM). MRI also presents a more global view of BM than biopsy therefore, it may provide a better understanding of hematologic disorders. The purpose of this study was to monitor radiation-induced alterations of BM in acute phase of irradiation (1-10 day after total body ir...
متن کاملNew method for fixation point of tibialis posterior tendon transfer
Background: The transfer of the tibialis posterior tendon to the dorsum of foot can restore the function of the paralyzed dorsiflexor muscles of the foot and ankle. In order to reduce the wound complication in the insertion site of tendon to bone by a plantar knop we used a new method of fixation by an absorbable screw inserted dorsally. Methods: we performed this operation on 15 patients in...
متن کاملBlood oxygenation during hyperpressure intraperitoneal fluid administration in a rabbit model of severe liver injury: Evaluation of a novel concept for control of pre-hospital liver bleeding
Oxygen is an essential part of the most important metabolic pathways in aerobic organisms. Oxygen delivery is merely dependent on blood, rendering blood loss a devastating event. Traumatic pre-hospital liver bleeding is a major cause of early trauma deaths in human and animals, with no established therapeutic method yet. Increasing intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) has been shown to reduce liver b...
متن کاملThe Most Appropriate Reconstruction Method Following Giant Cell Tumor Curettage: A Biomechanical Approach
Giant cell tumor (GCT) is a primary and benign tumor of bone, albeit locally aggressive in some cases, such as in the epi-metaphyseal region of long bones, predominantly the distal end of femur and proximal end of tibia (1). There are a variety of treatments for a bone affected by GCT, ranging from chemotherapy, radiotherapy, embolization, and cryosurgery, to surgery with the use of chemical or...
متن کاملA novel isolated dual perfusion/superfusion heart model for physiological and pharmacological evaluation of mammalian heart preparations
Abstract Introduction: Isolated perfused heart models such as perfusion and superfusion are commonly used for mammalian heart research. However, there are several fundamental limitations in the current techniques. In perfusion model, a suitable cannula is connected to the aorta and the perfusion is retrogradely performed. But, electrode displacement is a potential unwanted event resulted fr...
