2 Fig. 1 Time-kill curves of Staphylococcus aureus PR209, with cryopreservation or refrigerated medium. Journal of Vascular Surgery  , DOI: ( /S (99) ) Copyright © 1999 Society for Vascular Surgery and International Society for Cardiovascular Surgery, North American Chapter Terms and Conditions

3 Fig. 2 Histologic appearance of an 8-day cryopreserved abdominal aorta. Cryopreservation preserved endothelium cells better, as evidenced by factor VIII antibody staining ( arrows) at original magnification of ×100. L, Lumen; I, intima; M, media.

4 Fig. 3 Histologic appearance of an 8-day refrigerated abdominal aorta. Staining with factor VIII antibody at original magnification of ×100 shows the absence of the endothelium cell lining. L, Lumen; I, intima; M, media.

5 Fig. 4 Histologic appearance of a refrigerated allograft after 4 weeks of implantation in infected sites. Hematoxylin-eosin stain at original magnification of ×40 shows intimal proliferation, including significant inflammatory infiltrates. L, Lumen; I, intima; M, media.

6 Fig. 5 Histologic aspect of a cryopreserved allograft after 4 weeks of implantation in infected sites. Factor VIII staining at original magnification of ×100 reveals endothelial cell recovery, with numerous plump cells (arrows).
