Technical aspects of perichondrial grafting in the rabbit. 1984

R D Coutts, and D Amiel, and S L Woo, and Y K Woo, and W H Akeson

A screening process to determine the most appropriate model for the study of cartilage growth from perichondrium obtained from the rabbit's left tenth costal cartilage has resulted in the following observations: (1) best growth is achieved when fixation of the graft is secure and conformity to the recipient bed is complete; (2) immobilization enhances fixation, but permits fibrous tissue growth onto the graft, and (3) diminishing periods of immobilization enhance perichondrial growth, but have a deleterious effect on fixation.
