Summary

After freezing-devitalisation of rabbit tibia bone, a slow resorption and substitution by new bone within a period of 6 months could be demonstrated. Intramedullary freezing combined with internal fixation of an osteotomy in the frozen area was followed by a delayed healing. Angiographic studies showed an almost normal circulation after freezing of the main vessels.

Zusammenfassung

Die durch Frieren devitalisierte Kaninchentibia wird innerhalb von 6 Monaten durch neugebildeten Knochen ersetzt. Bei intramedullärer Frierung und Osteosynthese wurde ein verzögerter Osteotomiedurchbau beobachtet. Das Frieren großer Extremitätengefäße zeigte angiographisch keine Nachteile.
