Title: [Bioactive glass ceramics in the surgery of the nasal septum and paranasal sinuses (author's transl)]. Author: Reck R, Brömer H, Deutscher K. Journal: Laryngol Rhinol Otol (Stuttg); 1980 Feb; 59(2):108-10. PubMed ID: 7442388. Abstract: In 38 rabbits defects of the bridge of the nose or the nasal septum were reconstructed by means of glass ceramic implants. Over a 15 months follow-up period no inflammatory reaction was observed. The mucoperichondrium remains unchanged over the implant and mucosa defects up to one square centimeter close over it. A bone lamina inserts between the mucoperichondrium and the implant surface near bone structures. New bone formations were found on glass ceramic implants that were placed into the subperichondral space of the rabbits' ears and on those implants that were covered by autologeous periost and situated in the thigh muscles of the animals.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
