[Experimental production of bone sarcomas in the rabbit by a single local injection of beryllium].
The local intra-osseous injection of double zinc beryllium silicate into the tibial or femoral epiphysis of a rabbit causes an osteogenic sarcoma in 70 p. 100 of cases. These experimental conditions make it possible to reveal early non specific radiological alterations, later on secondary alterations corresponding to the development of the sarcoma and finally to follow the spontaneous evolution of the tumor. Moreover, this experimental process of induction of an osteogenic sarcoma by means of a local intra-osseous injection is vastly better than an intra-venous injection which causes straight-away multiple visceral lesions.
