Experience with the clinical use of demineralized bone autografts in traumatology and orthopedics

The authors analyse the results of clinical application of osseous allografts demineralized by 1, 2-2, 4-3, 6 N solutions of hydrochloric acid. Of 92 patients with various pathologies of the locomotor system the postoperative results were positive in 85 cases (92.4%) and negative in 7 cases (7.6%). The analysis has demonstrated that the negative results were not connected with the kind of the osteoplastic material.
