Effects of Parotid Gland Ablation on Experimental Fracture: Callus and Its Microvascular Modifications

  • Conference paper
Bone Circulation and Bone Necrosis

Abstract

Parotin (parotid hormone) has significant and surprising effects on long bones and their vascularization and on fracture callus. In this study we present the results obtained through bilateral-total ablation of the parotid gland in experimental animals (male and female adult albino rats) [1, 5, 7–9]. This produces a complete lack of such hormonal extracts and, hence, the complete absence of their effect on long bone tissue and its specific vascularization.
