Abstract The moist heat (80°C and 65% relative humidity) and light (xenon arc lamp) treatments of accelerated ageing were applied to investigate the colour stability of offset and electrophotographic prints on papers made of virgin and I 00% recycled fibres. The prints were evaluated using spectrophotometric measurements and additional colour differences calculations. In addition to the colour differences, the 2D and 3D colour gamuts are presented. The results reveal the different colour stability of prints. The effect depends on the type of accelerated ageing, printing technique, composition of ink and paper characteristics. Moist heat ageing has less influence on colour stability than light ageing. The electrophotographic prints show better ageing resistance than offset prints. The intluence of ink on print light fastness is considerable. Azo pigments in magenta and yellow have lower light fastness than phthalocyanine pigments in cyan or carbon black. The surface coating has an intluence on light fastness of prints. Meanwhile, prints on recycled papers show similar colour stability compared to prints on papers made of virgin fibres

Forty patients since 1988 have had distal tibial bone grafting for 41 arthrodeses of the foot and ankle. Bone graft is obtained through a cortical window made just above the medial metaphyseal distal tibial flare. Average follow-up was 23.3 months. Forty of 41 arthrodesis sites fused; there was only one nonunion. There were no delayed unions. There were no complications at the donor site based on patient examination and radiographs. Ipsilateral ankle motion was not affected by the bone graft procedure. Cited complications from iliac crest bone graft include donor site pain, blood loss, heterotopic bone formation, pelvic instability, iliac hernia, infection, fracture, and deformity. Complications with allografts include disease transmission and immune response. These are avoided by using locally obtained distal tibia autograft for arthrodeses in the foot and ankle.
