METHOD FOR STIMULATING REPARATIVE OSTEOGENESIS IN ANIMALS AND PEOPLE Russian patent published in 2005 - IPC

FIELD: medicine, orthopedics, traumatology.

SUBSTANCE: one should perform percutaneous osteoperforations with surgical laser with a monofilamentous quartz light guide of 0.4 mm diameter supplied with thermostable protective covering in impulse-periodic mode at average power being 20-40 W. Osteoperforation should be fulfilled for 3-10 sec, in focus of fracture in not less than 5 points: the first 2 points at the distance of 1.0-1.5 cm against fracture area in both osseous fragments, the second 2 points at the distance of 1.0-1.5 cm against the first two points, the 5^th point crosses fracture area. Through openings should be formed in osseous fracture area in planes being perpendicular to the bone. The method enables to provide complete anatomo-functional restoration of affected bone, prevent the development of complications in the form of osteomyelitis and formation of false articulations.

EFFECT: higher efficiency of stimulation.
