Periosteum and bone marrow in bone lengthening: a DEXA quantitative evaluation in rabbits.

چکیده
We quantitatively studied the role of periosteum and bone marrow-endosteum during lengthening in 18 growing rabbits, comparing four surgical procedures: 1) periosteum and bone marrow preservation, 2) periosteum preservation, bone marrow destruction, 3) periosteum destruction, bone marrow preservation, 4) periosteum and bone marrow destruction. An external fixator was set on one femur, the other serving as a control. Distraction began on day 5 and stopped on day 25 (0.25 mm/12 hours). On day 30, femora were harvested with a layer of muscle. Area, bone mineral content and density were measured by dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry. Procedure 2 showed the highest increase in bone mineral content around the elongated callus (127%) compared to procedures: 1 (81%), 3 (25%) and 4 (-8%, i.e., resorption of bone ends). A statistically significant effect on bone formation was observed when preserving (vs. destroying): 1) periosteum, 2) bone marrow (effect observed only around the distraction gap), 3) periosteum and bone marrow in combination. Periosteum alone forms a larger callus, with more mineral content than bone marrow alone, and destruction of both results in the absence of bone formation around the distraction area. Careful preservation of periosteum is essential to bone healing. Formation of bone with a large mineral content does not require bone marrow preservation, but there is an interaction effect on healing between bone marrow and periosteum.

متن کاملBone lengthening in rabbits by callus distraction. The role of periosteum and endosteum.
The histology and mechanics of leg lengthening by callus distraction were studied in 27 growing rabbits. Tibial diaphyses were subjected to subperiosteal osteotomy, held in a neutral position for 10 days and then slowly distracted at 0.25 mm/12 hours, using a dynamic external fixator. Radiographs showed that the gap became filled with callus having three distinct zones. Elongation appeared to o...

Purpose: The reaction of compact bone of diaphyse of tibia and it's bone marrow to low power laser radiation was investigated. Materials and Methods: Ten adult male rabbits were divided randomly into experimental and control groups. Low-power He-Ne laser (36 J/cm2) were radiated into a fixed point of tibia daily for 14 consequative days. Rabbits of control group did not receive laser. At the e...
