The electrical induction of callus formation and external skeletal fixation using methyl methacrylate for delayed union of open tibial fracture with segmental loss.

A case of delayed union of an open tibial fracture with segmental loss is presented in which electricity was applied to the bone defect through two screws that were connected to a methy methacrylate skeletal fixation device. The fracture developed electrically induced callus formation around the cathode, callus extended to the anode, and solid bony union ensued. External skeletal fixation using methyl methacrylate is convenient and is a suitable adjunct to electrical stimulation of fracture healing.

Electrical callus and callus formation by electret.

The callus formed by passing an electric current through bone is called electrodynamic callus. The amount of electrical current determines the quality of the callus (osseous, cartilagenous, or fibrous). Callus forms first at the negative pole and grows toward the positive pole. The callus formed by placing a teflon film electret near the surface of bone is called electrostatic callus. The amount of this callus is larger when the bone is wrapped by the electret film than when the film is laid over the bone.

Electret induced callus formation in the rat.

Wrapping the mid-femoral shaft of the rat with a Teflon film electret produced a bony callus in 9 out of 10 animals. This model of electret-induced callus formation should lend itself to the histo-biochemical study of electrically induced osteogenesis.

Electron microscopic observations of FL cells infected with herpes simplex virus. III. Dense bodies.

FL cells infected with the -GCr Miyama strain of herpes simplex virus at an adsorbed multiplicity of approximately 10 were fixed at late stages of infection and examined by electron microscopy. Dense bodies containing electron-dense material and surrounded by a limiting membrane were occasionally observed in the perinuclear disternae and in intranuclear vacuoles. Budding of electron-dense material to the cisternae with acquisition of a limiting membrane at the inner nuclear membrane was also occasionally observed. These findings are in constrast with observations that in cells infected with cytomegalovirus numerous dense bodies and their budding process were observed only in the cytoplasmic area.

Direct effects of acryl bone cement monomer on isolated heart muscle.

Experiments were carried out in isolated dog heart muscle to determine the direct effect of acryl bone cement monomer on the myocardial contractility. The monomer caused a dose-dependent decrease in the maximum velocity of shortening (Vmax) and the maximum force development (Fm), consequently resulting in a leftward shift of the force-velocity relation curves. There was also a concomitant decrease in work, power, the maximum rate of force development (max dF/dt) and time to peak force (TPF) from the onset of force development. These results indicate that acryl bone cement monomer exerts a direct negative inotropic effect on the myocardium and that the myocardial depression due to free monomer absorbed from the mixed bone cement into the systemic circulation during operation seems to be one of the major causes of the cardiovascular complications associated with the clinical application of bone cement.
