Bone defects were surgically produced in the tibiae of rabbits and medicated with freeze-dried methylpyrrolidinone chitosan. Histological observations 60d after surgery showed a considerable presence of neoformed bone tissue, as opposed to controls, originating from the pre-existing bone as well as from the periosteum. The cationic nature and the chelating ability of the methylpyrrolidinone, chitosan apparently favoured mineralization. Endosteal-periosteal and bone marrow osteoblast-like precursors, stimulated by growth factors entrapped in the coagulum-polysaccharide mixture, gave rise to intramembranous bone formation. The ultrastructural examination evidenced that bone osteoid was followed by mineralization of the tissue.
