HARVESTING CANCELLOUS BONE AND MARROW FROM DISTAL FEMUR, PROXIMAL TIBIA, DISTAL TIBIA, OR CALCANEUS USING BONE PRESS APPARATUS

Methods of harvesting cancellous bone and bone marrow include extracting loosened cancellous bone and bone marrow-including a liquid component thereof-to a collection container that has a first cup and a suction port to which a suction source is connected. After extraction, the suction source is dis...

Zusammenfassung:	Methods of harvesting cancellous bone and bone marrow include extracting loosened cancellous bone and bone marrow-including a liquid component thereof-to a collection container that has a first cup and a suction port to which a suction source is connected. After extraction, the suction source is disconnected and a lid of the collection container is removed and replaced with a lid having a plunger with a press head that is configured to filter the extracted liquid by depressing the plunger toward a bottom of the first cup. The filtered liquid is poured through a suction port into a second cup while depressing the plunger, thereby separating the liquid from a semi-solid mass of cancellous bone that remains. The bone is extracted through a cortical opening in the femur, tibia, or calcaneus, or from an intermedullary canal that is preferably formed by reaming of the tibia using an orthopedic reamer.
