Publication Metadata only Comparison of four different techniques for performing an osteotomy A BIOMECHANICAL, RADIOLOGICAL AND HISTOLOGICAL STUDY ON RABBITS TIBIAS(2015-12-01) Elmadag, M.; Uzer, GÖKÇER; Yildiz, FATİH; ERDEN, TUNAY; Bilsel, K.; Buyukpinarbasili, NUR; USUMEZ, A.; BOZDAG, E.; SEN, C.; ELMADAĞ, NUH MEHMET; UZER, GÖKÇER; YILDIZ, FATİH; ERDEN, TUNAY; BİLSEL, İSMAIL KEREM; BÜYÜKPINARBAŞILI, NURThis animal study compares different methods of performing an osteotomy, including using an Erbium-doped Yttrium Aluminum Garnet laser, histologically, radiologically and biomechanically. A total of 24 New Zealand rabbits were divided into four groups (Group I: multihole-drilling; Group II: Gigli saw; Group III: electrical saw blade and Group IV: laser). A proximal transverse diaphyseal osteotomy was performed on the right tibias of the rabbits after the application of a circular external fixator. The rabbits were killed six weeks after the procedure, the operated tibias were resected and radiographs taken.
