Impact of scaffold granule size use in Masquelet technique on periosteal reaction: a study in rat femur critical size bone defect model

ConclusionThe size of Herafill® granules has significant impact on the development of periosteal-like structures around the defect using Masquelet ’s induced membrane technique. Small granules show significantly increased regrowth of periosteum and improved bone formation adjacent to the induced membrane.
