Avaliação do laser de baixa intensidade na regeneração de cartilagem articular do joelho de coelhos submetidos à trocleoplastia

Abstract

A osteoartrose (OA) do joelho é uma doença de caráter inflamatório e degenerativo que provoca a destruição da cartilagem articular e leva à deformidade da articulação. A luxação patelar é um problema ortopédico comum na clínica de pequenos animais. A cirurgia não impede a progressão da OA. O laser de baixa intensidade (LBI) tem sido utilizado para acelerar processos de reparação tecidual, por aumentar o fluxo sangüíneo, possuir ação antiinflamatória, antiedematosa, analgésica e estimular o metabolismo celular. Este trabalho estudou a influência da laserterapia em dois espectros eletromagnéticos, vermelho e infravermelho, na reparação cartilagínea, diferenciando histologicamente o tipo de cartilagem formada durante a reparação articular. Foram utilizados 36 coelhos machos raça Norfolk divididos em 3 grupos com 12 animais cada: G1 (controle, trocleoplastia sem tratamento pós-operatório), G2 (trocleoplastia + irradiação laser 670 nm) e G3 (trocleoplastia + irradiação laser 904 nm). Os animais dos grupos G2 e G3 foram irradiados diariamente, com intervalo de 24 horas, durante 10 dias utilizando um laser In-Ga-Al com comprimento de onda (λ) de 670 e um laser de As-Ga com λ de 904 nm respectivamente, na dose de 2 J por ponto totalizando 4 pontos. Os grupos G2 e G3 apresentaram recuperação funcional mais rápida que G1. Histologicamente, G3 apresentou um aspecto osteocondral mais regular, com formação de cartilagem hialina enquanto em G1 e G2 formou-se fibrocartilagem

Stifle osteoarthrosis is an inflammatory and degenerative disease that causes destruction of the articular cartilage and leads to deformity in the articulation. Patellar luxation is a common orthopedic problem in the clinic of small animals. The surgery does not avoid the progression of the osteoarthrosis. Low intensity laser has been used to improve degenerated processes for it increases blood flow, it has antiinflammatory, antiedematous, analgesic effects and stimulates cellular metabolism. This work studied the influence of laser therapy of two electromagnetic spectra, red and infrared, for repairing cartilage, histologically telling apart the kind of cartilage formed during articular regeneration. We use 36 male rabbits bred Norfolk divided into 3 groups with 12 animals each: G1 (control, trochleoplasty without treatment post-operatory), G2 (trochleoplasty + laser therapy 670 nm) and G3 (trochleoplasty + laser therapy 904 nm). The animals from G2 and G3 were irradiated daily with an interval of 24 hours over 10 days using a laser Ga-Al-In with wavelength (λ) of 670 and a Ga-As laser with λ 904 nm respectively. At a dose of 2 J per point total of 4 points. The groups G2 and G3 showed faster functional recovery that G1. Histologically, G3 had a most regular osteochondral aspect, with hyaline cartilage formation while in G1 and G2 formed fibrocartilage
