Figure 6. Distal phalanx histolysis after amputations at different planes.

Figure 6

The amount of bone length remaining after histolysis is similar among groups, regardless of the initial amputation (a). The sum of total bone removed as determined by the initial amount of bone removed at amputation (black bars) and the amount of bone removed during the histolysis process (b; grey bars). The total bone removed was similar among digits with more than 19% bone removed. Significance is based on results from Tukey’s post-hoc pairwise comparisons where significance is p< 0.05. a,bdenote significant differences between groups.
