To determine the ability of a new type of composite xenogeneic bone grafting to repair bone defect. Methods: The new type of composite xenogeneic bone was obtained by combining the chemically treated cance1lous bone with recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2). It was implanted on the bone defect of rabbit. Results: There was a large amount of new bone formation within the combined material and the amount was increasing as the time elapsed. In contrast, there was a lot of fibrous tissue with a little new bone formed on the area of the bone defect when the treated cancellous bone was implanted alone. Conclusion: The results imply that the rhBMP-2 plays a very important role in new bone formation and the composite xenogeneic bone appear to be an ideal material for repair of bone defect.
