[Changes in the amount of mineral components in bone tissue during treatment of transcondylar fractures of the humerus].
In 12 non-inbred 4-month-old puppies a closed brachial transcondylar fracture has been performed. By means of photonic absorbtiometry contents of mineral components have been estimated in the regenerate forming between the osseous broken pieces, in the osseous fragments and in the adjoining segment, depending on duration of the joint fixation during the treatment. Mineralization takes place more quickly in a mobile joint. Fixation for 5-7 days does not essentially affect the miniralization rate. Fixation for 14 days decreases intensity of the mineralization, produces deminiralization in the osseous pieces and in the adjoining segment of the bone, results in incompleteness of the brachial condyle rearrangement.
