Abstract/OtherAbstract:
We performed biopsies during reoperation for minor complications in two active young patients 9 and 19 months after massive bone allograft implantation for bone tumour. The grafts were dead and resorption-apposition activity, when present, was predominantly in subperiosteal areas. Inflammatory infiltration was very seldom found. Features considered as 'microfractures' or 'microcracks' were noted in the cortical ring together with the formation of woven bone, in areas with remodelling. Such cracks are likely to be of mechanical origin and do not inevitably lead to complications.
