Calcium sulfate as a bone graft substitute is rapidly resorbed in vivo releasing calcium ions but fails to provide long-term three-dimensional framework to support osteoconduction. The setting properties of calcium sulfate however allow it to be applied in a slurry form making it easier to handle and apply in different situations. This study examines the in vivo response of calcium sulfate alone and as a carrier for a coralline hydroxyapatite in an established bilateral corticocancellous defect model in rabbits. Defects were filled flush to the anterior cortex with a resorbable porous ceramic alone and in combination with calcium sulfate slurry, calcium sulfate slurry alone or calcium sulfate pellets and examined at time points up to 52 weeks. Specimens where assessed using Faxitron X-ray, light and electron microscopy. Calcium sulfate in either slurry or pellet form does indeed support new bone formation alone however, complete filling of the bone defect is not observed. Calcium sulfate in slurry form does however improve the surgical handling of particulate bone graft substitutes such as Pro Osteon 200 R, which remained as an osteoconductive scaffold for up to 52 weeks and may have played an important role in the ultimate closure of the cortical windows.
