dc.description.abstractOsteomyelitis was induced in the tibiae of dogs by injecting hemolytic strain of Staphylococcus aureus. Clinical, radiological and histomorphological reactions in the diseased tibiae were studied up to 15 weeks to evaluate the response of infected bone to parenteral oxytetracycline in cases of closed wounds and surgical curettage, antimicrobial irrigation along with parenteral oxytetracycline therapy in animals carrying open wounds. Enriched collagen as a constituent of therapeutic regimen was also administered locally and its efficacy during resolution of osteomyelitis was compared with other treatments. Surgical curettage along with irrigation of lesions was observed to be an effective method for bringing an early recovery in aggravated cases of osteomyelitis. The addition of collagen enhanced the healing process in comparison with non-collagen treated animals.en_US
