The influence of foreign body surface area on the outcome of chronic osteomyelitis

Highlights • We model chronic osteomyelitis in rabbits using different infection promoters. • Cotton-mesh-foreign-body rabbit group had the shortest disease on-set time interval. • Cotton-mesh-foreign-body rabbit group had the highest survival rate. • Cotton-mesh-foreign-body rabbit group had the hi...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • We model chronic osteomyelitis in rabbits using different infection promoters. • Cotton-mesh-foreign-body rabbit group had the shortest disease on-set time interval. • Cotton-mesh-foreign-body rabbit group had the highest survival rate. • Cotton-mesh-foreign-body rabbit group had the highest disease reproduction rate. • Cotton-mesh-foreign-body rabbit group—the most suitable for further treatment studies.
