Electron micrographs of the cross section of chitosan conduits (scanning electron microscope, × 5 000).

(A) Normal conduit before in vivo implantation: the cross section of the conduits was smooth and there were only a few pores.

(B) Conduit implantation for 90 days: the cross section of the conduits became looser and porous.
