Abstract:
[Objective]To explore the effects of joint synovial fluid on tendon-bone healing of reconstructed ligament. [Methods]Forty female New Zealand rabbits,aged 6 months,weight 2.5~3.5 kg,were divided into 4 groups randomly.Transfer of semitendinosus tendon to the bone tunnels was performed to make bone-tendon healing model,on the right knee the bone tunnel was not communicated to the joint cavity,in contrast,the bone tunnel on the left knee was connected with synovial fluid.Animals in one group were killed at 8 weeks after operation,bone-tendon healing samples were harvested for biomechanical test.Animals in other three groups were killed at 2,4 and 8 weeks after operation respectively to harvest the samples for histological observation.HE and Masson staining were conducted to examinant histological change.[Results]At 2 weeks after operation,there was no significant difference between non joint synovial fluid group and joint synovial fluid group in bone-tendon interface healing,which were filled with granulation tissue.At 4 weeks postoperatively,interface healing in non joint synovial fluid group was obvious better than that in joint synovial fluid group.Fibroblast cells and cartilage cells increased obviously,and collagen fibers synthesized.At 8 weeks after operation,tendon-bone interface in joint synovial fluid group was filled with connective tissue,the collagen fibers arranged disorderly.In contrast,more compact collagen fibers were seen in non joint synovial fluid group.Interface cell accounts in non joint synovial fluid group were superior to that in joint synovial fluid group at 2,4,8 weeks after operation (P
