Popis: | Coralline hydroxyapatite (cHA) is an osteoconductive material currently being used as a bone graft substitute. Created by the hydrothermal conversion of the calcium carbonate skeleton of coral to hydroxyapatite, this material has a porous structure similar to cancellous bone. Addition of demineralized bone matrix (DBM) would conceivably create a composite with both osteoconductive and osteoinductive properties. This pilot study evaluated the healing of rabbit cranial defects that had been filled with cHA or cHA augmented with a DBM gel formed by adding glycerol to the DBM particulate. Data from these were then compared to unfilled defects from a previous study. Results indicated enhancement of new bone formation and an increase in the rate of healing in the defects filled with the cHA-DBM gel composite. Further studies are warranted. |
