Use of bone grafts of equine in orthopedics and traumatology
In this newsletter we present the results of a study published in the international journal “Minerva Chirurgica,” illustrating the use of Bioteck bone substitutes in various applications in orthopedics and traumatology.
In all cases, bone substitutes from the Osteoplant® series were used.
These substitutes are made from spongy equine bone tissue made biocompatible through the Zymo-Teck® enzymatic process: specific hydrolytic enzymes eliminate the antigens of equine tissue and preserve the bone collagen in its native conformation.
This allows Osteoplant® products to maintain high mechanical strength. Additionally, the native conformation of bone collagen promotes physiological recognition of the graft by osteoclasts, allowing complete remodeling with viable bone.
In all types of surgical procedures analyzed by the authors, the use of Osteoplant® bone substitutes has resulted in…
