Bone Grafts and Bone Graft Substitutes

2012
Bone grafts or substitutes are used in spinal surgery to fill defects, bridge defects or to promote spondylodesis. The physiological process is similar to that of fracture healing and incorporates the same spatial and temporal factors. The ideal material should provide osteogenetic, osteoinductive and osteoconductive properties.

Complications in Bone Grafting

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Clinics of North America, 2011
Autogenous bone grafts continue to have wide use for reconstructing alveolar defects because of the many advantages associated with them. Although complications are low, the harvesting of bone grafts does have the risk of morbidity, which varies based on the harvest site chosen. Patients should be informed of possible complications associated with bone

Bone and Bone Graft Healing

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Clinics of North America, 2007
Bone is unique in connective tissue healing because it heals entirely by cellular regeneration and the production of a mineral matrix rather than just collagen deposition known as scar. This article discusses the cellular, tissue, and organ levels in each of the following sections--skeletal embryology, normal bone, examples of abnormal bone, and bone ...

Autogenous bone grafting

The Journal of Foot and Ankle Surgery, 1996
Complex, out-of-the-ordinary problems are often encountered when evaluating patients for reconstructive foot and ankle surgery. Salvage of these complex problems in the foot and ankle often requires the use of autogenous bone grafts. This article provides a brief overview of autografts including indications, healing, graft types, and perioperative ...

In the 1970s, Boyne and Sands published reports on a new technique for alveolar bone grafting. They recommended that only cancellous bone be used and that the procedure be undertaken in the mixed dentition prior to canine eruption. Alveolar bone grafting prior to canine eruption soon became a routine part of the protocol for 90% of European and North ...

BIOLOGY OF BONE GRAFTS

Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 1999
The terminology of bone transplantation is complicated by the various histologic types of bone grafts. A graft moved from one site to another within the same individual is an autograft; the corresponding adjective is autologous or autogenous. An allograft (adjective, allogeneic) is tissue transferred between two genetically different individuals of the

Bone Graft Substitutes

Hand Clinics, 2012
Replacement of missing bone stock is a reconstructive challenge to upper extremity surgeons and decision-making with regards to available choices remains difficult. Preference is often given to autograft in the form of cancellous, cortical, or corticocancellous grafts from donor sites.
