Figure 12

Photomicrograph of the bone biopsy stained with hematoxylin and eosin (HE), where vital bone (VB) surrounds the graft residual non-vital bone (NVB). The newly formed bone presents osteocytes (Oc) in the lacunae, whereas the graft residual is characterized by empty lacunae (L). Note the presence of osteoblast-like cells in the VB margin that contacts the non-mineralized tissue (n-MT). 20, 40 and 100x total magnification.
