One technique often used for small intraarticular fracture fixation involves the use of 2-octyl-cyanoacrylate (2-OCTA) (Dermabond®, Ethicon, Inc., Raritan, USA). The purpose of this study was to determine if 2-OCTA impedes bony healing. Osteochondral plugs in 38 retired Sprague-Dawley rats were created in both hind legs. Each rat had one plug dipped in 2-OCTA before fixation and one control plug. H&E staining was used to quantify bone bridging. The 2-OCTA group had a mean bridging bone circumference of 22.80%, significantly less than 67.75% in the control group (p<0.05). Our data suggests that 2-OCTA blocks bridging bone formation, making it a poor choice for fracture fixation.
