Abstract
Wedge-shaped fractures of the tibiae of rats and dogs were locally treated with soluble collagen of pigskin. As a result of this, significantly higher stability levels of the fracture callus were achieved in a shorter time than in controls. Earlier formation of the callus was proved histologically. The serum determinations indicated a mineral deposit on the protein matrix that occurred much sooner than in the control fractures.
