[Integration of pyrolized bone graft material in major bone defects]

Summary

This study evaluated the healing of bone defects after using pyrolized xenogenic bone grafts in 90 patients over 3 years. Most patients experienced impaired wound healing and the graft material did not integrate well. Inflammation and bone loss were common outcomes. The authors could not confirm earlier claims that these grafts stimulate bone growth. The findings suggest that pyrolized bone grafts may not be effective for major bone defects.
