Histology of cancellous impaction grafting in the femur : a case report

We report the histology of a femur retrieved 3.5 years after a cemented revision of a hip replacement in which impaction allografting had been used to fill two large cortical defects. The allograft chips had largely been replaced by viable cortical bone, and the interface between cement and tissue r...

The allograft chips had largely been replaced by viable cortical bone, and the interface between cement and tissue resembled that seen after primary cemented arthroplasty.
