Fig. 5

This figure shows representative postmortem contact radiographs of Hi-SA5456- and Lo-SA5464-inoculated animals with a single osteotomy stabilized with a four-hole MouseFix locking plate (A and B) 4 days and (C and D) 14 days postoperatively. On Day 4, no signs of bone healing were observed in (A) Hi-SA5456- or (B) Lo-SA5464-infected animals. Hi-SA5458-infected mice displayed osteolytic lesions adjacent to the plate and screws and at the fracture site (C), whereas Lo-SA5464-infected mice showed signs of the beginning of bone healing and callus formation (D) at Day 14 postoperatively.
