Healing of bone defect by application of free transplant of greater omentum

In this study the process of the bone healing was observed. As the model the femoral bone of the New Zealand rabbit was used. The identical bone defect was created on the left and the right femur of the each experimental animal. On the right side the defect was covered with the fitting muscle tissue and with the free transplant of the greater omentum on the left side. The healing of the defect was observed by the x-ray and histological examination. The results of the investigations showed that the process of the callus formation and its mineralisation are much quicker and thicker on the defect that was covered with the free transplant of the greater omentum.
