Summary:

  • BAG is easy handling
  • Very good antibacterial property
  • Using where infection is ongoing or in patients where a risk of developing infection is very high.
  • In general: in the small defect using BAG stand-alone and in the large defect (over 5 cm) combining autograft – for the BAG to retain it's properties it is important that the ratio of BAG compared to autograft does not exceed 50%.
  • Part of the treatment concept, not replacement
  • Comparing with antibiotics no issues with resistance
  • Bonalive granules should not be applied in acute infected tissues including an acute exacerbation of chronic osteomyelitis.
