ABSTRACT: | This review of 15 years research into various methods and techniques of using marrow osteoprogenitor cells shows that marrow grafts can be useful for numerous skeletal healing problems, but not all. The method offers considerable improvement over standard open iliac crest grafting and provides an attractive and advantageous method of stimulating osteogenesis in the management and prevention of nonunion. | ||||||
