Abstract

This protocol describes how to establish an ovine critical-size, segmental bone defect model to study bone regeneration and reconstruction. Critical-size bone defects, which require large-volume tissue reconstruction, remain a clinical challenge. Bone engineering has the potential to provide new treatment concepts, yet clinical translation requires anatomically and physiologically relevant ...
