Résumé

Previous clinical studies have shown the effectiveness of bone repair using two-stage surgery called the induced membrane (IM) technique. The optimal wait before the second surgery is said to be 1 month. We have been successfully performing the IM technique while waiting an average of 6 months to carry out the second stage. We hypothesised that the IM maintains its beneficial capabilities, even at a later second stage, and that there is no relation between the speed of bone union and the wait between the first and second stage. We sought to explore the biological properties of 'older' IMs sampled to substantiate our clinical observations.
