Abstract

Bone grafting is the transplantation or implantation of bone or a bone substitute into a site to replace missing bone or to enhance bone healing. This chapter looks at autografts; allografts; grow factors; mesenchymal stem cells and tissue engineering; alloplastic grafts; ideal bone graft properties. Operative technique: Harvesting of an autogenous cancellous bone graft.
