A novel sheep vertebral bone defect model for injectable bioactive vertebral augmentation materials

Abstract: New injectable bone substitutes have been developed that are, unlike polymethylmethacrylate, biologically active and have an osteogenic effect leading to osteogenesis and bone remodeling for vertebroplasty or kyphoplasty. In this study, we developed a sheep vertebral bone defect model to evaluate the new bioactive materials and assessed the feasibility of the model in vivo. Bone voids were experimentally created on lumbar vertebrae L2-L5 with L1 and L6 left intact as a normal control in mature sheep. The defec… Show more

“…Radiology assessment post-procedure was carried out by X-ray, CT, and MRI at 1, 6 and 12 months post-op (Figs. 4,5,6,7,8,9). Intake of analgesic medications pre-and post-procedure was also registered (Fig.…”

“…Two different procedures have been developed to restore vertebral body stability and avoid further height compression: vertebroplasty (VP) where the fracture lines and cancellous bone are filled with injectable bone cement, and kyphoplasty (KP) where the created void and cancellous bone are filled with injectable bone cement [1,4,5]. Both procedures are today proven and accepted as standard of care for pain caused by compression fractures of the spine, such as traumatic non-osteoporotic vertebral fractures and traumatic compressive vertebral collapses, especially in younger patients [3,6,7].…”

“…Sheep have smaller, longer and narrower vertebral bodies, longer transverse processes, shorter dorsal spinous processes and narrower, higher pedicles with more lateral angulations [255]. Most studies on the ovine spine concerning vertebral fractures dealt with injection or impaction of biomaterials or drug delivery systems in the vertebral body [256][257][258][259][260][261][262][263][264]. The observation times should be long and some studies even go up to three years [260].…”
