Abstract

The tissue compatibility of the hydroxylapatite silver phosphate ceramics could be demonstrated in the cortex of mongrel dogs. The assessment was done by histomorphometrical methods. The toxicity depends on the content of silver phosphate and the method of manufacture.- In treatment of an experimentally induced osteomyelitis in dogs, hydroxylapatite silver phosphate containing granules had better success than an autologous spongiosa graft or hydroxylapatite granules without the agent.
