## Abstract Using qualitative and histoquantitative methods, we investigated the effect of immobilization versus nonimmobilization on the biodegradation process, implant‐tissue interaction, and scar formation after enveloping a rejoined rabbit Achilles tendon with a self‐reinforced polyglycolide (S
## Abstract A self‐reinforced polyglycolide (SR‐PGA) membrane has been developed recently by our research group and testing of it begun. To study the behavior of this membrane and its effect on cortical bone, 93 Wistar rats were operated on. SR‐PGA membrane was applied around the rats' femoral diap
A novel composite material with an ultra-high strength and a low elastic modulus called carbon-fiber-reinforced liquid crystalline polymer (LCP/CF) has been developed. We studied the effects of an intramedullary LCP/CF rod on bone in rabbits. A LCP/CF rod of 3.2 mm in diameter and 50 mm in length wa
## Abstract Tissue engineering of autologous bone combined with osteoprogenitor cells is a suitable strategy for filling large bone defects. The aim of this study was to evaluate the osteogenicity of a xenogenic bone graft cultured with allogenic bone marrow stromal cells (BMSC) in a mouse critical
## Abstract The purpose of this study was to investigate, qualitatively and histoquantitatively, the tissue response of rabbit femur cancellous bone to polyglycolide (PGA), polydioxanone (PDS), polylevolactide (PLLA), and stainless steel pins under identical conditions. Eighty knees in 50 rabbits w
