Zusammenfassung:	PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain an apparatus and a method for mixing a bone cement which reduces the exposure to vapors from a liquid bone cement at an operation place. SOLUTION: The bone cement mixing apparatus comprises: a bowl; an attachable/detachable lid; and a handle extending from the bowl. The bowl incorporates a bone cement vapor removal system that allows the extraction of bone cement vapors or fumes even after the lid has been detached from the bowl. Such extraction of vapors may be continuous. The vapor removal system is coupled to a vacuum source. The handle is ergonomically shaped and incorporates a vacuum tuning that couples the bone cement vapor removal system of the bowl with the vacuum source. COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO
