Abstract

A periosteal bone formation model based on the collateral reaction of the periosteum to evacuation of the medullary cavity has been developed. With this experimental model and on the basis of the values obtained and the precise statistical findings made in this study, further investigations on the influence of pharmacological and hormonal factors on periosteal bone formation should be possible.
