Abstract:
BACKGROUND: There is no effective measure to repair the large scope bone defect in clinic till now.OBJECTIVE: To explore the feasibility on repairing bone defect of rabbit radius by autologous bone marrow stem cells.DESIGN: Self-controlled groping study focused on experimental animals.SETTING: Department of orthopaedics of a university hogpital.MATERIALS: The study was completed in the Experimental Animal Centre of Fujian Medical Science Institute. Twelve healthy New Zealand rabbits with half sex each were selected with body mass of 3.1 to 3.4 kg.METHODS: The marrow of rabbit ilium was collected and separated, cultured in vitro to prolifeiate bone marrow stromal stem cells and then mixed with biological materials to transplant the distal bone defect area of rabbit radius. X-ray, gross samples and histological section were used to observe the repairing effects.ture of bone marrow stromal stem cellsRESULTS: X-ray showed that new bone with high density was formed 12weeks after transplant and white cortical bone was seen in the defected area from gross sample while histological sections showed that there were plenty of bone trabecules and the marrow cavity was formed.CONCLUSION: Transplant of autogenous bone marrow stromal stem cells is an ideal method to repair distal bone defect of rabbit radius.
