Bone growth accelerated by stimulation of the epiphyseal plate with electric current.

M Forgon, V Vámhidy, L Kellényi.   

Abstract

The effect of stimulation with continuous small amounts (20 microA) of electric current on the distal epiphyseal plate of rabbit femurs was examined. In contrast to control animals 6 weeks after the operation 18 of the 20 experimental animals showed an increased lengthening or broadening of the femur on the operated side. In 14 cases the increased growth resulted in varus or valgus deformities.
