Bone possesses a bioelectric property that is important in maintaining its structural and architectural integrity. In vivo experiments demonstrate that bone formation can be accelerated by the application of direct current. We hypothesize that bone formation occurs through an electrochemical rather than an electromechanical effect. Two cases of congenital pseudarthrosis of the tibia treated by direct current stimulation are presented. A bone graft may be added to enhance bony union in conjunction with direct current. The implications of this work are that there is need for further fundamental studies including ultrastructural observations.
骨骼具有一种生物电特性，这对于维持其结构和构造完整性非常重要。体内实验表明，施加直流电可加速骨骼形成。我们推测骨骼形成是通过电化学效应而非机电效应发生的。本文介绍了两例通过直流电刺激治疗先天性胫骨假关节的病例。可添加骨移植以结合直流电增强骨愈合。这项工作的意义在于需要进行包括超微结构观察在内的进一步基础研究。
