[Electromagnetic stimulation of infected experimental pseudarthrosis in a left-right study of beagles]

Electromagnetic AC-stimulation according to the method of KRAUS was applied in 9 infected ununited ulnar fractures in the beagle. New cortical bone formation, bridging of the bone defect and the number of blood vessels in bone and soft tissue was assessed. Electromagnetic stimulation had no significant influence on bone healing or on the number of vessels.
