MicroCT and histomorphometric results for AB group. a 2D-microCT view: the images show large AB particles (blue arrow) and many fine trabeculae of new bone (yellow arrow) between particles at 30 days. Between 30 and 180 days, reduction of AB particles (blue arrow) and thickening and reduction of the number of bone trabeculae occur. b Histological view at 30 days, AB particles (area surrounded by black dotted line) are surrounded by bone (yellow arrow) and the spaces between them filled by connective tissue (CT) and bone marrow (BM). Note that at 60 and 180 days, the new formatted bone and AB particles reduces and most of the space between the particles was replaced by bone marrow (BM).

Different letters p < 0.05 among periods per group and asterisks difference between groups
