Characterization of an Acute Rodent Osteomyelitis Infectious Model Using a Tibial Intramedullary Implant Inoculation

Chronic osteomyelitis in presence of orthopedic implants is a condition observed in the field of biomaterials as it impairs early bone-implant contact, fixation and integration. In this study, a surgical intramedullary tibial insertion was performed using a titanium wire previously inoculated with Staphylococcus aureus in order to develop an osteomyelitis model in a clinically relevant long bone and in absence of any prophylactic treatment.
