Bones grafts are pieces of bone or bone substitute that can replace damaged or diseased bone in a number of joints and bones in the body.

INFUSE Bone Grafts – Uses, Spinal Fusion, Complications & Lawsuits

Medtronic’s INFUSE Bone Grafts are synthetic, concentrated proteins called recombinant human bone morphogenetic proteins (rhBMP-2) and were approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 2002 for use in spinal fusion. These synthetic proteins are mixed with collagen from cows and injected into the spine to alleviate pain. It is estimated that INFUSE is used in 100,000 spinal fusion procedures a year in the United States and reached $900 million in sales in 2011 alone. Stryker Biotech manufactures a similar product, called OP-1, which was approved by the FDA in 2001 for limited use. Thebackdoor.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/ceh-v1-healos-birch-paper-071201.pdf. Bone Graft Substitute Materials. Bone Graft Substitute Materials. Bone graft classification system Allograft-based bone graft substitutes involve allograft bone, used alone or in combination with other materials (eg, AlloGro, AlloFuse, AlloStem [AlloSource, Centennial, Colorado]; Opteform, Optefil [Exactech, Inc, Gainesville, Florida]; Grafton, MinerOss [BioHorizons, Birmingham, Alabama], OrthoBlast II [Integra OrthoBiologics, Irvine, California]; DynaBlast, DynaGraft-D [Keystone Dental, Burlington, Massachusetts]; TruFuse [minSURG Corp., Clearwater, Florida]; NuFix [Nutech Medical, Birmingham, Alabama]; and FusionFlex [Wright Medical, Arlington, Tennessee]).

Bone Graft Substitute Materials

Recombinant bone morphogenetic proteins act as an adjunct to autografts during lumbar fusions and for fracture repair. Examples of rhBMP include INFUSE (Medtronic Spinal & Biologics, Memphis, Tennessee) and OP-1 Implant (Olympus Biotech Co, Hopkinton, Massachusetts). Cell-based bone graft substitutes use cells to generate new tissue alone or are seeded onto support matrices. Future directions. HEALOS® Bone Graft Replacement. Category: Spine Tissue Management HEALOS® Bone Graft Replacement is an osteoconductive matrix constructed of cross-linked collagen fibres that are fully coated with hydroxyapatite through a proprietary 360° accretion process.

Bone Graft Substitutes for Spine Fusion. There are a variety of bone graft substitutes that are available for use in spine fusion surgery or are being evaluated in various stages of clinical trials.

Bone Graft Substitutes for Spine Fusion

In general, these types of bone graft are a synthetic or a manipulated type of a naturally-occurring product. There is a lot of interest in developing and refining bone graft substitute options for use in lumbar spinal fusion surgery procedures in order to eliminate the need to harvest the patient’s own bone, thus potentially reducing the risk and pain associated with the procedure and resulting in higher fusion rates. There are several main types of bone graft substitutes used in spinal fusion surgery, which can be generally categorized into three main areas: Demineralized Bone Matrix (DBM)Synthetic bone graft extendersBone Morphogenetic Proteins (BMP).

Interim Results of U.S. Clinical Studies Show Favorable Fusion Rates For Healos(R) Bone Graft Replacement Compared to Autograft, Industry 'Gold Standard'

Clinical Studies Show Favorable Fusion Rates For Healos(R) Bone Graft Replacement Compared to Autograft, Industry 'Gold Standard'. </a> MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. -- Orquest, Inc., a leading developer of innovative biotherapeutic technologies for orthopedic care, reported today that interim clinical data presented from a prospective, randomized, multi-center U.S. study showed that the Company's Healos(R) bone graft substitute -- mineralized collagen matrix combined with the patient's bone marrow -- had performed favorably in comparison to the "gold standard," autograft autograft: see transplantation, medical. , which requires a second surgical procedure to harvest bone graft material from the patient's hip.

The data were reported April 13 at Biotechnologies for Spinal Surgery, an international orthopedic conference in Halle, Germany. au·tog·e·nous or au·to·gen·icadj.1.

Bone grafting fundamentals Bone grafting refers to a wide variety of surgical methods augmenting or stimulating the formation of new bone where it is needed.

Bone Grafting

There are four broad clinical situations in which bone grafting is performed: To stimulate healing of fractures -- either fresh fractures or fractures that have failed to heal after an initial treatment attempt. To stimulate healing between two bones across a diseased joint. This situation is called “arthrodesis” or “fusion”. What are my treatment options? All methods of bone grafting involve adding some material to the specific site where bone is needed as a means of stimulating a new or more effective bone healing response.
