[The use of bone morphogenetic proteins in delayed fracture healing, pseudoarthrosis and in ulna osteotomy carried out because of elbow joint diseases].

Abstract	This study deals with the application of bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) as an osteoinductive factor in the treatment of fractures and elbow disease in the dog. Partially purified canine bone morphogenetic protein (cBMP) was used in the repair of a delayed union fracture and a pseudoarthrosis. The cBMP was applied in Biocoral and Tricalciumphosphate carriers using a subcortical grafting method. Two dogs suffering from incongruence and subluxation of the elbow joint were treated with a partially purified bone morphogenetic protein of moose bone origin placed in the gap produced by ulnar osteotomy.
