Autologous bone is the gold standard grafting material for spinal fusion.1 Despite its success, however, autologous bone is associated with defined morbidities. Alternatives/adjuncts, such as bone marrow aspirates, have…
Three important terms are used when describing bone grafts and bone graft substitutes. An understanding of these three terms (osteogenesis, osteoconduction, and osteoinduction) is an essential prerequisite when…

Osteobiologics is the study of bone formation and turnover. Clearly, this has direct relevance to orthopedics in general. Spinal applications are becoming better understood.
Spinal fusion remains an important treatment option for numerous pathologies. However, achieving a successful fusion is challenging, and rates of pseudarthrosis have been reported as high as 60%.1 A number ofstudies…
Fracture healing1 Primary (osteonal) fracture healing occurs with rigid plate fixation. Osteoclasts cut a path across the osteosynthesis site and blood vessels and osteoblasts fill in the gap with new bone. Occurs with…
