Abstract:The advantage of autologous cancellous bone grafts in sites of weak osteogenic potency has long been appreciated. It now needs to be tested whether crushed cortical bone can be used for bone induction in sites of strong osteogenic potency. The grinding device described here enables the preparation of bone dust of variable particle size under sterile conditions.
