The mixture ofhydroxyapatite and tricalcium phosphate isformulated as an osteoconductive scaffold which isfully resorbed by the body. The lattice work mimicsthat of cancellous bone (see photo). Available asgranules or blocks of various sizes.CERAMYSIS REPRO BONERBG5 5cc Granules 1.0 to 4.0mm £90.00RBG10 10cc Granules 1.0 to 4.0mm £145.00RB10D10 Rod 10mm dia 10mm long £105.00Other sizes available...please call 0845 130 9596Veterinary Tissue BankInterlocking Nail SystemInterlocking Nails are a refinement of the original Kuntscher Nail. AnInterlocking Nail is basically an Intra-medullary Pin secured in position byproximal and distal transfixing screws which engage the bone to the nail toprovide axial, bending and torsional stability.In comminuted long bone fractures, the Interlocking Nail System isuseful due to the mechanical advantage of medullary implantation(i.e. mechanical axis) and prevention of collapse of the fracture by theinterlocking effect. Ancillary cerclage wires reduce periosteal stripping andminimise disturbance to blood supply compared to plating.Veterinary Instrumentation stocks the 4 hole no.11 Nails (11mm spacing)in 8.0, 6.0, 4.7 and 4.0mm Nail diameters.We also maintain stocks of additional Drill Bits and Taps - please phone forinformation.IN1168SETModel 11 - 6.0/8.0 SetVeterinary Tissue Bank is Europe’s first tissue bank dedicated to helpingcompanion animals.Products are available in various presentations, and have manyapplications from use during procedures such as TTA and jointarthrodesis to dealing with the difficult non-union case.Available in either Canine or Feline Powder, or now as DBM Putty(Canine only) see Chapter 1 Page 52.SynergySynergy is a pure biosynthetic bone graft. Composition is a biphasiccombination of 85% Beta-Tricalcium Phosphate (Beta-TCP) and 15%Hydroxyapatite. Structure is very similar to cancellous bone, aninterconnected porous structure allowing cell migration. Beta-TCPsimultaneously resorbs as new bone is formed, while the hydroxyapatitewhich resorbs slowly provides an osteoconductive scaffold.Uses include void filling, osteotomy sites, arthrodesis and extending autoand allografts.
