Abstract:
Objective To investigate the therapeutic effect of anti-infecti ve reconstituted bone xenograft(ARBX)on osteomyelitis. Methods A proximal tibia os teomyelitis rabbit model was used. Twenty animals were randomly assigned to 4 gr oups and all of them were injected with staphylococcus aureus through a bone win dow. Two weeks postoperatively the animals underwent clearance of the focal lesi on, followed by implant of 3 pellets of ARBX containing 30 mg of gentamicin in g roup Ⅰ, 3 pellets of reconstituted bone xenograft (RBX) in conjunction with 30 mg of intramuscular gentamicin for 5 days in group Ⅱ, 3 pellets of RBX without antibiotic in group Ⅲ, and those in group Ⅳ were left without bone grafting. S pecimens were harvested 8 weeks after the above procedures and were then subject ed to gross observation, radiological, histological and bacteriological examinat ions to compare their therapeutic effect on osteomyelitis. Results 1) In group Ⅰ the bacteria counting and modified Norden scoring were by far the smallest am ong all 4 groups (P
