University of Louisville Orthopaedic Bioengineering Laboratory, Louisville, KY 40290, USA.
Objectives: Hydroxyapatite cement (HAC) is biocompatible and osteoconductive, but its slow resorption limits new bone formation. The purpose of this investigation was to determine the effects of adding partially demineralized xenograft cortical bone in an established animal model.
Methods: Eight 6-month-old female New Zealand white rabbits were used.
