Fig. 12From: Electrophysiological and pathological changes in the vastus medialis and vastus lateralis muscles after early patellar reduction and nerve growth factor injection in rabbits with patellar dislocationPathology of Group 3; the green arrow refers to the proprioceptors. The proprioceptors were arranged in disorder and loose, the long axis direction from parallel to irregular, atrophied, deformed, and cleavage. a, b VM and VL (HE × 100) at 1 month after patella reduction; c, d VM and VL (immunofluorescence × 100) at 1 month after patella reduction. e, f VM and VL (HE × 100) at 3 months after patella reduction; g, h VM and VL (immunofluorescence × 100) at 3 months after patella reductionBack to article page
