No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2010-07-01; Purpose: To study were to reproduce an alveolar bone defect model in Wistar rats to be used for testing the efficacy of stem cell therapies. Additionally, we also aimed to determine the osteogenesis process of this osseous defect in the 1 month period post-surgery. Methods: The animals were randomly div...

No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2010-11-01; Purpose: To verify if uterine cerclage can induce craniosynostosis or any cranial deformity in new born Wistar rats. Methods: One pregnant female Wistar rat underwent laparotomy on day 18 of gestation and the uterus cervix was closed with a 3-0 nylon suture to avoid delivery, that occurs normally on the...

No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2011-07-01; Purpose: To quantify the amount of bone formation in the calvarial region of Wistar rats after craniotomy using bone wax as a haemostatic agent. Methods: Surgery to produce bilateral, symmetric, full-thickness cranial defects (area: 18 mm 2) was performed in eight animals. The right side of the cranium ...
