title: [Animal experimental studies on "bone welding" by ultrasound (author's transl)].
abstract: This article deals with a method of osteosynthesis which was tried out in a model experiment on Wistar rats. In this method, which may be termed "bone welding with ultrasound", bone fragments are glued together, using ultrasound and n-butyl-2-cyanoacrylates. The load capacities of glued and welded bones were compared in an in-vitro trial. The course of the in-vivo trial was followed up clinically and roentgenologically, and the preparations obtained after termination of an observation period of 6 weeks were then subjected to histological processing.
