Einwachsverhalten von periostgedeckten Knochendübeln mit und ohne autologe Knorpelzellen
Autologous osteochondral transplantation has the major disadvantage of significant damage to a healthy joint surface at the donor site. The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of autogenous chondrocytes injected into the periosteum of autologous bone grafts in order to provide an alternative method for cartilage repair. A total of 22 Gottinger minipigs were operated twice on both knees. The first operation served for cartilage biopsy for the chondrocyte culture. During the second operation an osteochondral defect was created in the medial facet of the trochlear groove. The defect was treated differently with an autologous cortico-cancellous bone cylinder,harvested from the proxi…
The anatomy of the heart in the sonogram. A comparison between anatomic and ultrasonic cross-section.
Cardiac sonography has only recently been introduced as a diagnostic procedure. In order to facilitate the interpretation and evaluation of the ultrasonic cardiac cross-section displayed by this two-dimensional technique, we performed anatomic cross-sections corresponding to ultrasonic cross-sections. The ultrasonic cross-sectional images were taken from children with a real-time-motion scanner. The anatomic cross-sections were taken from adult hearts. Two ultrasonic transverse cross-sections are compared with the two corresponding anatomic cross-sections and three ultrasonic longitudinal cross-sections with one corresponding anatomic cross-section. The direct comparison between anatomic an…
