pubmed:abstractText |
We examined solvent-dried, gamma-irradiated (SD-R) allografts and fresh-frozen (FF) allografts mechanically and morphologically. Before transplantation, FF grafts were more than six times stronger than SD-R grafts. After four weeks, the tensile strength was about the same in both groups. At 24 weeks only collagen fibrils of small diameter were observed in the SD-R grafts while in FF grafts fibrils of small and intermediate diameter were seen. Clinically, we suggest that SD-R grafts could be used as a favourable alternative to FF grafts if care was taken regarding their initial mechanical weakness.
