Bone grafting is used to augment bone healing and provide stability after spinal surgery. Autologous bone graft is limited in quantity and unfortunately associated with increased surgical time and donor-site morbidity. Alternatives to bone grafting in spinal surgery include the use of allografts, osteoinductive growth factors such as bone morphogenetic proteins and various synthetic osteoconductive carriers.
