Abstract
Introduction: Bone fracture is one of the most common bone injuries in the world. It is, therefore, not surprising that bone healing is a critical orthopedic problem. Currently, bone grafts (autografts, allografts and xenografts) have been used as bone replacement strategies. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of application of chitosan (CHS) as an osteo-inducer in the process of bone healing.
Materials and Methods: Fifteen male rats, in the same age and weight range, were divided into three groups of 5. 3 mm of metaphysis of the radius bone of each animal was removed. The defect was left empty in the first , filled with autograft in the second ,and filled with CHS in the third group. Radiographs of the defects were obtained on 28th and 56th day post-operation. The animals were euthanized according to human ethics and the defects were investigated histologically on the 56th post-operation day.
Results and Discussion: According to radiographic and histopathologic results, CHS indicated a improved effect ,and improved bone healing process in comparison with the other two treatment modalities.
Conclusion: It can be concluded that use of chitosan improves the potential for bone formation and bone healing criteria. These composite materials, however, deserve more studies.
