Abstract
Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of polydioxanone (PDS) plate and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) on the regeneration of cartilage grafts, which are frequently used in nasal and septal surgery. Methods: Fifteen white New Zealand Albino-type female rabbits were used in the study. Our study was carried out on 4 different applications on each animal: cartilage only, cartilage+PRP, cartilage+PDS plate, and cartilage+PRP+PDS plate, and in 3 different periods: the first month, the second month, and the third month. Results: A significant difference was obtained between the groups using cartilage+PRP and cartilage+PRP+PDS only in the first month. When both application types were compared, a statistically significant decrease was found in the histopathological cartilage viability score after PDS use. In examining peripheral chondrocyte proliferation, a statistically significant difference was found only in the third-month comparison. When the group using only cartilage was compared with the group using cartilage+PDS, it was determined that peripheral chondrocyte proliferation was significantly reduced at the end of the third month with PDS. In evaluating fibrosis and foreign body reaction, a statistically significant increase was detected using a PDS plate. In histopathological cartilage viability score statistical analysis, a significant difference was obtained between the groups using cartilage+PRP and cartilage+PRP+PDS only in the first month. Degeneration in the cartilage structure was observed macroscopically in the specimens where the PDS plate was used. Shape change and cartilage deformation were observed in the PDS plate specimens. Conclusions: When the results were examined, this observation coincided with the statistically significant increase in foreign body reaction and fibrosis in the PDS plate groups. However, these results contradicted our hypothesis before the study and the information in the literature. Our results will help provide preliminary information and guidance for future studies and offer a different perspective.
