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.

Bone graft substitutes

Skeletal Radiology, 2007
Surgeons involved in skeletal repair, reconstruction, and oncology commonly encounter or create bone defects that are unlikely to heal if treated by fixation alone. Cancellous and cortical autografts have been used for decades to treat skeletal defects, but the amount of autograft is limited, and morbidity related to autograft harvesting can be ...

Bone Grafts and Bone Induction Substitutes

Clinics in Plastic Surgery, 1994
The use of bone grafts is the basis of all craniofacial surgery. Bone grafts are used to stabilize the open segments, expand the patient's structural boundaries, and fill defects created by trauma or congenital malformations. Bone grafts are harvested from local or distant sites as indicated. Biomaterial implants are used as bone substitutes when it is

Plaster: A bone substitute

Oral Surgery, Oral Medicine, Oral Pathology, 1966
Abstract A review of the literature on the use of plaster of Paris in osseous regeneration has revealed that this simple, inexpensive substance offers many advantages as an implant for filling defects in bone. The material is stable, readily available, and can be easily sterilized.

Bone graft substitutes

Journal of Hand Therapy, 2003
A better understanding of the biology of fracture healing and an increasing awareness of the limitations and potential complications of autogenous bone graft harvest have combined to foster a burgeoning interest in the development of bone graft substitutes. A few of these materials have been available for more than a decade, and many more should become

Bone substitutes

European Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery & Traumatology, 1999
Biocompatible calcium phosphate ceramics has been used for several years in orthopeadic surgery. We have been using two new synthetic biphasic calcium phosphate ceramics (BCP) since September 1996 for bone defect filling in any orthopaedic or trauma operation where autograft use was not possible or even wanted.

Resorption characteristics of bone and bone substitutes

Oral Surgery, Oral Medicine, Oral Pathology, 1964
Abstract Resorption of ninety intramuscular implants of different types of bone and bone substitutes were studied radiographically in twenty-two adult mongrel dogs. On the basis of mean resorption time, the implants were resorbed in the following order: (1) plaster of Paris, (2) autogenous cancellous bone, (3) cathode-ray-sterilized canine cancellous

BONE-GRAFTING AND BONE-GRAFT SUBSTITUTES

The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery-American Volume, 2002
The treatment of delayed unions, malunions, and nonunions requires restoration of alignment, stable fixation, and in many cases adjunctive measures such as bone-grafting or use of bone-graft substitutes.Bone-graft materials usually have one or more components: an osteoconductive matrix, which ...

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.

[Bone substitutes].

Der Unfallchirurg, 2009
Bone substitutes are used to supplement or substitute autogenous transplantation of cancellous bone. These materials should provide a scaffold structure and support bone healing alone or in combination with other substances. In trauma surgery the indication for use of bone substitutes lies mostly in filling of small metaphyseal cancellous bone defects ...
