Distraction osteogenesis of bone or callotasis causes poor bone formation when the distraction rate is beyond the optimal rate. Low-intensity pulsed ultrasound was reported to enhance fracture healing, treatment of nonunion, and accelerate bone maturation and remodeling during consolidation stage of distraction osteogenesis. In this study, we evaluated the efficacy of different durations of LIPUS treatments during rapid bone lengthening. After 7-day latent period, osteotomized New Zealand white rabbit tibiae were lengthened at the rate of 2 mm per day for 1 week. Two different LIPUS treatment durations of 20 min and 40 min were selected for treatment groups. Rabbits without treatment served as the control group. Plain X-ray, peripheral quantitative computed tomography (pQCT) and histology were performed to assess bone acquisition in the distraction callus. The results showed that LIPUS increased bone mineral content and volume of the mineralized tissue of distraction callus in a dose-dependent manner. The different regions of distraction callus exhibited various spatial response to LIPUS treatment. Moreover, LIPUS enhanced dose-dependant endochondral formation. Compared with 20-min treatment, the 40-min LIPUS treatment was a more favorable treatment duration for bone regeneration in the distraction callus. In conclusion, LIPUS was able to enhance bone regeneration under rapid distraction, and its effect was dose-dependent.

Purpose: Ollier's disease (multiple enchondromatosis) can cause severe lower limb length discrepancy and deformity in children. Osteotomy and limb lengthening with external fixation can correct the lower extremity deformity. There may be lesions in the osteotomy part (OP), and the internal fixation part of the external fixation(FP).

Distraction osteogenesis (DO) is widely utilized for treating limb length discrepancy, nonunion, bone deformities and defects. This study sought to develop a 4D time-lapse morphometry method to quantify bone formation and resorption in mouse femur during DO based on image registration of longitudinal in vivo micro-CT scans. Female C57BL/6 mice (n = 7) underwent osteotomy, followed by 5 days of latency, 10 days of distraction and 35 days of consolidation.

Objective: Bone incision leads to interrupted and sluggish blood flow in the process of distraction osteogenesis (DO), creating a hypoxia (0-2% oxygen tension) at the center of the bone callus. This hypoxia is critical in the coupling of osteogenesis and angiogenesis during DO. This study aimed to investigate the effect of Uniaxial Static Strain (USS) on osteogenesis in osteoblasts under hypoxic conditions, with a focus on the expression of osteogenic markers and angiogenic factors.

Distraction osteogenesis (DO) is a valuable surgical method for limb lengthening and bone defect correction, but its lengthy consolidation phase presents challenges. The accordion technique (AT), involving compression and distraction of bone segments, has shown potential for enhancing healing. This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of the AT conducted at three different time points (distraction phase, early consolidation phase, or late consolidation phase) compared to conventional DO in a mouse osteotomy model.
