Transient Retention of Endochondral Cartilaginous Matrix With Bisphosphonate Treatment in a Long‐Term Rabbit Model of Distraction Osteogenesis

Bisphosphonates induce major increases in strength of callus in distraction osteogenesis in the short term. Poor understanding of the underlying mechanism, however, raises concerns about long‐term consequences. In this long‐term study in 32 rabbits, zoledronic acid transiently increased trabeculae by delayed temporal progression of endochondral bone remodeling but did not prevent radiographic completion of bone repair.
