ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE@#To apply trifocal distraction osteogenesis in canine model of skull segmental defects and to provide reference for clinical treatment.@*METHODS@#Six labrador dogs were selected in this study and divided into observation group and control group randomly. Each group contained 3 dogs. Skull segmental defects models were established by surgery, and dogs in bservation group received trifocal distraction osteogenesis treatment. Bone density was observed and compared between two groups during treatment.@*RESULTS@#There were no significant difference in bone density between two groups on th 1st day (P>0.05). The bone density of observation group on the 30th day, and 60th day were higher than that of control group (P<0.01).@*CONCLUSIONS@#Trifocal distraction osteogenesis has significant clinical effect, and it would be widely used in clinical treatment.
