    Area of Science:

    • Orthopedic surgery
    • Biomaterials science
    • Regenerative medicine

    Background:

    • Bone grafts are essential biomaterials in orthopedic surgery.
    • Clinical applications include fracture healing, joint fusion, and bone defect repair.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review the various types of bone grafts available.
    • To elucidate the diverse functions of bone grafts in clinical practice.

    Main Methods:

    • Literature review of bone graft applications.
    • Analysis of graft types and their clinical utility.

    Main Results:

    • Bone grafts facilitate bony union in delayed fractures and pseudoarthrosis.
    • They are used to supplement fresh fracture healing and promote joint fusion (arthrodesis).
  • Bone grafts serve to fill bone defects from tumors, infection, or trauma.

    • Conclusions:

    • Understanding bone graft types and functions is vital for successful orthopedic interventions.
    • Bone grafting remains a cornerstone in managing complex bone conditions.
    • This review provides a comprehensive overview for clinicians and researchers.
