Osteochondral Allografts

Femoral Head

The femoral head allograft is used for resurfacing cartilage defects with mature hyaline cartilage. Studies show that osteochondral allografts transplanted within 15 to 28 days of recovery have significant functional and clinical advantages.

Allograft Highlights

  • Versatile Structural Graft: Offers a large volume of dense cancellous and cortical bone, ideal for filling substantial bone defects in orthopedic and revision procedures.
  • Customizable and Milled Options: Can be shaped intraoperatively or pre-milled to fit the specific requirements of each reconstructive case. 
  • Orthopedic Utility Across Specialties: Commonly used in hip, spine, oncology, and trauma cases where bulk structural support and bone remodeling are essential.
