[The vessel behavior of the bone following plate osteosynthesis and subsequent osteomyelitis. An experimental study at the dog tibia (author's transl)].

Abstract

In this paper the revascularisation pattern of the dog tibia diaphyse following osteotomy and plate osteosynthesis with subsequent osteomyelitis is described at various stages. As compared to undisturbed plate osteosynthesis the differences and conformities in revascularisation are shown. It is attempted to interpret the vessel behaviour under clinical aspects.
