Deskripsi
Natural coral was used to correct bone defect in nine dogs in which fracture and bone defect was created experimentally. Histopathological examinations on 4th, 10th and 16th post-operative week confirmed biocompatability and acceptance of the graft, indicating that natural coral could be successfully employed as bone graft in orthopedic surgery, in dogs.
