## Abstract The viability and osteogenic potential of bone cylinders for bone transport was investigated in one tibia of 18 mature male New Zealand rabbits. The length of the bone cylinder was equal to or twice that of the diameter of the tibia. The cylinder was cut subperiosteally with an external

## Abstract Distraction osteogenesis is useful for correcting limb length inequality, deformities, or short stature. Despite success with bone formation, soft tissue maladaptations including muscle and joint contracture may lead to undesirable results. Botulinum toxin A has been useful in treating
Axial micromotion of bone fragments enhances callus formation during fracture repair or limb lengthening. To examine this, we used an axial-shortening model of the tibial callus in rabbits and performed histological analyses. After 10-mm lengthening of the left tibia with an external fixator, we sho
