Application of nanometer artificial bone in the treatment of epipodite comminuted fracture among 12 cases / 中国组织工程研究

ABSTRACT

There were 12 patients who were all type C1 or C3 epipod comminuted fracture.By means of the internal fixation,all patients were transplanted with the nanometer artificial bones,comprising hydroxyapatite and ?-tricalcium phosphate.The 12 patients used the bacteriophages preoperation,during operation and 3 days postoperation.They were free from pressure dressing and started to take exercises 48 hours postoperatively.Followed up for 6-12 months,all of the 12 patients healed well.So nanometer artificial bone is an effective method for the epipodite comminuted fracture,without any severe toxicity or complications.
