Abstract
The aim: To study the role and place of bone grafting in the formation of bone stump after amputation. Materials and methods: 3 series of experiments were carried out on 44 rabbits with amputation of the thigh in the middle third and stump grafting using osteoplastic hermetic closure of the canal with a thin cortical plate (series I), closure of the canal with a spongy bone (series II), and loose closure of the canal with a cortical graft located at the entrance to the canal at an angle of 30° (ІІІ series). Observation period: 1, 3, 6 months. Histological examination method with vascular filling with 10% mascara-gelatin mixture. Results: In series I, in the majority of observations, a stump of a cylindrical shape with a bone locking plate of an osteon-beam structure and normalization of intraosseous microcirculation was formed. A slight displacement of the graft caused a violation of microcirculation. In series II, organotypic stumps were formed in all observations. In series III, incomplete closure of the bone marrow cavity led to sharp microcirculatory disorders and the course of the reparative process with pathological bone remodeling. Conclusions: The parameters of the favorable course of the reparative process and the formation of the organotypic bone stump are the safety of its cylindrical shape, the presence of a compact bone structure, normalization of intraosseous microcirculation.
