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 ...

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 Grafts and Bone Induction Substitutes
Clinics in Plastic Surgery, 1994The 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

Synthetic bone graft substitutes
ANZ Journal of Surgery, 2001Replacement of extensive local bone loss is a significant clinical challenge. There are a variety of techniques available to the surgeon to manage this problem, each with their own advantages and disadvantages. It is well known that there is morbidity associated with harvesting of autogenous bone graft and limitations in the quantity of bone available.

Synthetic Bone Graft Substitutes
Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America, 1994Some of the most significant advances in biomaterials over the last 20 years have been in the field of bone graft substitutes. Additionally, bone growth proteins were one of the first tissue-specific morphogenic factors to be characterized and produced by recombinant genetic technology.

Implantable Bone Substitute Materials
Clinics in Podiatric Medicine and Surgery, 1995This article focuses on materials used as bone substitutes. The materials may be used as substitutes for autografts or, in some cases, along with autografts. Each material has unique properties that may be beneficial for specific applications. Some future developments in bone substitute materials are also discussed.

Injury, 2005
Autograft is considered ideal for grafting procedures, providing osteoinductive growth factors, osteogenic cells, and an osteoconductive scaffold. Limitations, however, exist regarding donor site morbidity and graft availability. Allograft on the other hand, posses the risk of disease transmission.

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1996
Approximately 500 million years ago, the Paleozoic era heralded an evolutionary marvel: the skeleton. Unique to this evolutionary development was the capacity for regeneration: the physiologic renewal of embryologically derived tissue. Many of the cellular and molecular components for bone regeneration have been identified (bone morphogenetic proteins),

Journal of Long-Term Effects of Medical Implants, 2006
Bone is a complex organ system that provides structural support for the human body while also serving an important protective function for the internal organs. It is estimated that over 500,000 bone-grafting procedures are performed annually in the United States.

BONE-GRAFTING AND BONE-GRAFT SUBSTITUTES
The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery-American Volume, 2002The 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 ...
