Popis: | The union rate of wire fixation after median sternotomy remains unsatisfactory. We developed a novel osteoconductive sheet composed of hydrophilized hydroxyapatite and evaluated its osteogenetic effect when interposed between sternal halves in a canine model. Eighteen canines were divided equally into groups based on the hemostatic agent used: osteoconductive sheet (S), none (C), and bone wax (BW). After median sternotomy, the sternal halves were closed by wire fixation. In each group, 3 canines were euthanized at 1 month, while 3 were euthanized at 2 months. Resected sternums were mechanically assessed by the 3-point bending test, radiographically assessed by micro-CT, and pathologically assessed to quantify the osteogenesis between sternal halves. Compared with the BW group, the S group had a greater maximum stress at 1 month (S: 322.9 ± 107.7 N, C: 233.0 ± 62.7 N, BW: 124.9 ± 88.4 N; P = 0.025), and greater maximum shear force at 1 month (S: 1.92 ± 0.67 N/m2; C: 1.23 ± 0.28 N/m2; BW: 0.68 ± 0.41 N/m2; P = 0.025). Micro-CT revealed that the S group had more osteogenesis than the BW group at 1 month (25.7% ± 9.8% vs 6.9% ± 9.2%), and 2 months (34.0% ± 15.1% vs 14.8% ± 9.4%); the respective values in the C group were 17.1% ± 7.2% and 29.7% ± 9.3%. Pathologic examination revealed that the S group had the greatest osteogenetic area at 2 months (S: 38.8% ± 18.8%; C: 24.5% ± 6.9%; BW: 24.7% ± 18.6%). Adjuvant osteoconductive therapy using a cotton-like hydroxyapatite sheet in addition to wire fixation significantly improved sternal healing compared with BW. This new material also showed relatively better outcome than the C group. |
