FIGURE 2. — Modified Radiographic Union Score for Tibia fractures (mRUST) scoring of Yucatan minipigs treated with intramedullary nailing (IMN). Bone Morphogenetic Protein-2 (BMP-2) resulted in rapid radiographic healing in the 25.0-mm segmental bone defect model treated with an IMN as depicted by monthly mRUST scores (* denotes improved healing in IMN25 BMP with P < .05 compared to IMN25 Cont at that time point). All IMN25 BMP specimens were clinically and radiographically healed by 2-3 months. In contrast, the IMN25 Cont specimens had failed healing trajectories by 4 months, which did not improve.
