[Treatment of chronic osteomyelitis with Taurolin-Gel (author's transl)]

A study was made to ascertain the effect of Taurolin [Bis-(1-dioxo-perhydro-1, 2, 4-thiadiazinyl-4)-methan]*-Agarose resp. Taurolin -Collagen, using as model a chronic osteomyelitis in a dog's femur. The result was verified by means of X-rays, bone scans, intermittent bacteriological checks and, finally, histology. Taurolin, a chemotherapeuticum derived from the aminosulfonic acid, Taurin, was proven to be compatible. It led to regression of the osteomyelitis.
