APPARAT ZUR AUTOLOGEN KNOCHENENTNAHME WAHREND EINER OSTEOTOMIE

摘要

An apparatus for collecting particulate bone from the operating site during an osteotomy or bone drilling procedure so that it can be used subsequently to augment the bone fusion process. A bone cutting or drilling tool (1) is provided with a module for collecting particulate bone simultaneously with cutting or drilling the bone. The collected particulate bone is transferred continuously to a sterile containment module and maintained under sterile conditions until it is prepared for re-use in the patient.
