(a and b). Safranin O/von Kossa staining to detect mineralized bone (black staining) of comparable areas in representative tibiae 84 d after osteotomy (a) and fracture (b) and intramedullary stabilization demonstrating nonunion and regular healing respectively. Cavities correspond to the 1 mm wire diameter. Asterisks indicate the proximal and anterior tibial side.
