Reconstruction of Model Defects of the Orbit of Laboratory Animals with Use of Resorbabl 3d Plates

Abstract

The study investigated the resorbable polymeric 3D plates based on polyesters of hydroxybutyric acid – poly-3-hydroxybutyrate (P(3HB)) in comparison with the commercial preparation Ltd. “Plastic” (allocartilage) for regeneration of bottom wall orbit defect of rabbits. The studied 3D plates don’t induce inflammatory reactions after implantation. They can perform function of insulating elements and have osteoprotective properties; they contribute to shortening of the period of injured bone tissue restoration, and complete closure of defect for 60 days
