Abstract:
Objective:To study the soft tissue inflammation of percutaneous implants using bacteria investigation method, so as to provide basic data for further clinical study of percutaneous implants. Methods: Implants were surgically placed into tibias of the goats. The inflammatory secretion from the peri-implant soft tissue was taken to perform bacteria test on 4, 6 and 9 weeks post-operation. Meanwhile, the soft tissue inflammatory reaction was also observed weekly. Results: 5 of the 16 implants were infected. The soft tissue showed tumefaction and ulceration 2 months post-surgery. As to bacteria investigation, the number of G.Streptococci increased when the inflammation was getting more severe. Conclusion: The extent of the soft tissue inflammation of percutaneous implants probably has positive correlation with the infection of G.Streptococci.
