Surgical membranes as directional delivery devices to generate tissue: testing in an ovine critical sized defect model.
<h4>Purpose</h4>Pluripotent cells residing in the periosteum, a bi-layered membrane enveloping all bones, exhibit a remarkable regenerative capacity to fill in critical sized defects of the ovine femur within two weeks of treatment. Harnessing the regenerative power of the periosteum app...
