Abstract:Objective To detremine whether fetal cartilage shares the unique scarless healing properties of fetal skin. Methods Full thickness in cisional ear wounds were created and sutured in fetal rabbits at 23 days' gestation(full term, 31 days')and in adult control rabbits. We harvested the samples of fetal rabbits at days 3,5,7,14 post wounding and the samples of adult rabbits at days 3,7,14,21 post wounding. Assessment at that time included evaluation of gross morphology, histologic and electronic microscopic appearance. Results Both fetal and adult cartilage wounds healed with scar formation. In contrast to adult wounds, no significant inflammatory response was foundd in fetal sounds. Conclusion Fetal cartilage healed more rapidly and without significant inflammation.
