  • A QUANTITATIVE ANALYSIS OF BONE FORMATION AFTER IMPLANTATION OF THE BOVINE HYDROXYAPATITE BIO OSS TOGETHER WITH FREE PERIOSTEUM IN RABBIT MUSCLE

    Abstract To investigate the ectopic new bone formation following implantation of bovine hydroxyapatite Bio-oss together with free periosteum, 12 chabb: ch rabbits were selected. In 10 rabbits, Bio-oss block together with free periosteum was implanted in the gastrocnemius muscle of one leg randomly, and Bio-oss block alone was implanted in the same muscle of the other leg. In the other 2 rabbits, the periosteum was implanted into the gastrocnemius musle of both legs. Histologic examination and quantitative analysis of newbone formation were performed at 3 and 6 weeks postoperatively. The results showed that in the legs implanted bovine hydroxyapatite Bio-oss together with freeperiosteum, new bone formation began at 5th day after implantation. The area ofnew bone composed of 19.0% of the specimens at 3 weeks postoperatively. No boneformation through out the experimental period in Bio-oss block alone implantedlegs and also periosteum implanted legs. We concluded that bovine hydroxyapatite Bio-oss has a good capacity of osteoconduction. New bone can be formed after the implantation of hydroxyapatite combined with free periosteum.
