The effects of Rats were divided into 3 groups: Group I (n=8) was intact control group and no intervention and treatment was applied to this group. Group II (n=16) was surgical control group and Group III (n=16) was It was seen that measurement results of SFI were statistically significantly difference between groups (p<0,001). In the sciatic nerve tissue samples taken from the rats, it was not determined a statistically significant difference between MDA, SOD, GPx and CAT levels detected by ELISA method (p>0,05). In the histological evaluation, it was seen that The obtained results in this study show that;
To investigate the effect of the eight plate position in sagittal plane on tibial slope in temporary epiphysiodesis technique applied to the proximal tibia and whether there is a rebound effect after removing the plate. Forty New Zealand rabbits (6 weeks old) were divided into four groups. In all groups, two 1.3 mm mini plates and cortical screws implantation were placed on both medial and lateral side of the proximal epiphysis of the right tibia. In Group 1 and 3, the plates were placed on anterior of the proximal tibial anatomical axis in the sagittal plane, and placed posteriorly in Group 2 and 4. The left tibia was examined as control in all groups. Group 1 and Group 2 were sacrificed after four week-follow-up. In Group 3 and Group 4, the implants were removed four weeks after index surgery and the rabbits were followed four more weeks to investigate the rebound effect. The tibial slope was measured on lateral X-rays every two weeks. Both medial and lateral plateau slopes were evaluated on photos of the dissected tibia.Aim
