Impact of hyperbaric oxygen therapy on irradiated autogenous bone grafts in rats

Abstract

Objectives: Limited tissue tolerance precludes the use of radical radiotherapy. Adjuvant hyperbaric oxygen therapy potentially can revert the devascularization process in radiation-induced injuries and eliminate the disadvantages of biologic reconstruction methods. The aim of this experimental study is to evaluate the effects of irradiation and hyperbaric oxygen therapy on bone healing. Methods: One hundred-twenty Wistar rats were randomly allocated into four groups. A tibial diaphyseal segment was resected and reimplanted in one group as controls. Rats in the second group received adjuvant hyperbaric oxygen therapy following resection and reimplantation. In the third group, reimplantation was performed following irradation of bone segments. The fourth group was treated with adjuvant hyperbaric oxygen therapy after reimplantation of an irradiated bone segment. Results: Hyperbaric oxygen therapy significantly increased healing of conventional bone autografts after six weeks. Tumoricidal irradiation administered at a single fraction caused marked impairment in bone healing at the chronic phase. Histologic and radiologic findings after 12 weeks revealed substantial improvement in bone healing in the fourth group in comparison to the third group. Conclusion: Hyperbaric oxygen therapy may have a relevant role in eliminating deleterious effects of irradiation on the biologic potential of bone tissue and may be used as an adjunct for bone segments resected and irradiated to be used in biological reconstruction.
