Effect of lengthening rate on angiogenesis during distraction osteogenesis.

This study investigated the angiogenic response to four varying rates (0.3, 0.7, 1.3, and 2.7 mm/day) of distraction in a rabbit model of leg-lengthening. Immunostaining was performed with use of specific antibodies to type-IV collagen and endothelial cell antigen to examine semiquantitatively the p...
