different ossificant materials have been used for induction of bone repair in many studies, and bone matrix gelatin which contains bone morphogenic proteins is one of the best ones. in present study we evaluated the role of this material in acceleration of bone repair in rabbit tibia. a hole of 3.5 mm diameter was made on right tibia of 10 and 12 rabbits as study and control group respectively....

Introduction: The low regeneration of bone in defective bones causes therapeutic problems. Various strategies to assess the healing of bone defects have been used which they include histological and histo-chemical analysis in an invasive study. The purpose of this study was to determine the ultrasonic parameters of bone as a promising noninvasive technology for assessing bone repair process. Ma...

background: it has been stated that the bone allografts from different tissue banks may lead to various amount of bone induction, so the aim of this study was to evaluate bone regeneration of three demineralized allografts both histologically and histomorphometrically in rabbits calvaria bone defects. materials and methods: in this double-blind randomized experimental animal study, 32 critical ...

background: bone tissue engineering requires materials that are biocompatible, mechanically suited for bone function, integrated with the host skeleton, and support osteoinduction of the implanted cells for new bone formation. the aim of this study was to compare the osteogenic potential of xenograft with hydroxyapatite/β- tricalcium phosphate (ha/β-tcp) scaffold. methods: new zealand rabbits (...

bone matrix gelatin (bmg) has been used for bone induction intramuscularly and subcutaneously by many investigators since 1965. more recently, some of the researchers have used bmg particles for bone repair and reported various results. in present study for evaluation of bone induction and new bone formation in parital defects, bmg particles were used in five groups of rats. the bmg was prepare...

osteosarcoma (os) is the eighth common cancer of childhood and its incidence is 4 cases in one million in children younger than 14. facial os incidence is estimated between 8 and 10% of os cases. the main etiology of os is unknown, but various predisposing factors are proposed such as radiation, radiotherapy, some benign bone diseases like paget’s disease or fibrous dysplasia. there is a 5-year...

the primary carcinoma may secondarily invade bone tissue through direct extensions, blood circulation or lymphatic transportation particulary when it is arising from breast, prostate, kidney, thyroid and lung. metastatics tumors of bone are more common than primary tumor of bone. the most common tumor, which metastasizes into bone, is the breast adenocarcinoma. some metastatic tumors of bone in...
