Evaluation of Amniotic-Derived Membrane Biomaterial as an Adjunct for Repair of Critical Sized Bone Defects
Figure 1
Radiographs of critical size femoral gap defects in the rat. (a) Control group 1 empty defect. Note the lack of any significant bone present. (b) Group 2 bone graft alone; new bone is present but not bridging. (c) Group 3 bone graft plus the addition of amniotic membrane allograft with robust bone formation and complete bridging of defect gap.
