Repair of Segmental Load-Bearing Bone Defect by Autologous Mesenchymal Stem Cells and Plasma-Derived Fibrin Impregnated Ceramic Block Results in Early Recovery of Limb Function

Figure 2

Radiological changes seen in the three test groups immediately: Day 21, Day 60, and Day 90 after operation. TEB: defect bridged by uniform new bone, cut ends of cortex no longer distinguishable, graft no longer distinguishable. MIC: a slight increase in radiodensity surrounding and distinguishable from the graft (callus formation) with no bridging of cortex. ALLO: a slight increase in radiodensity surrounding and distinguishable from the graft bridging of one cortex with new bone formation.
