Effects of Gaseous Ozone Treatment on Bone Regeneration in Femoral Defect Model in Rats

Abstract: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of ozone therapy in rat femoral fractures.Following the right open femoral fractures and intramedullary Kirschner wire fixation of the fracture in 60 male Wistar albino rats, the animals were divided into two groups of 30 animals each: ozone therapy group (n=30); non-treatment (control) group (n=30). Ozone was administered by rectal insufflation. After the rats were sacrified fracture healing was assessed by biomechanical and histopathologic evaluation. H… Show more

“…Duman et al have stated that O3 improved bone regeneration in a femoral defect model in rats. The physiological effect attributed to Ozone Is that O3 improved blood circulation, differentiation, angiogenesis and finally fracture healing 47 . Philippou has stated that IGF-1 is important in regeneration, hypertrophy, proliferation and differentiation of skeletal muscles.…”

“…In addition, it can stimulate immune responses and blood circulation. (7,8) Ozone is popular with its anti-inflammatory and analgesic action; it helps in the synthesis of biologically active substances such as interleukins, leukotrienes and prostaglandins which is valuable in reducing inflammation and pain. Furthermore, it has been shown to be a powerful and reliable anti-microbial agent against bacteria, fungi, protozoa, and viruses.…”

“…Clinically, the importance of ossification and fracture healing is well known in rats. It has been reported that exposure to ozone application provides good healing in diabetes (15), oral mucositis (16), surgical treatment of peri-implantitis (17), bone regeneration (18,19), and osteogenesis with calvarial defects in experimental models (20). Many rodent experimental animals, including rats, have been used to design bone defect models (21)(22)(23)(24).…”
