- Discussion:
- can be used to help recreate bone stock w/ protrusio, cavitary, or medial wall deficiency;
- cannot be expected to provide ingrowth or stability, but over time the morselized graft can undergo revascularization and remodeling;
- antiprotrusio cage or gap cup can be placed over the graft;
