Autologous Bone Implant therapy consists of harvesting osteoblasts, culturing and growing them in a laboratory, and injecting or implanting the cultured osteoblasts mixed with a special gel medium at the site where new bone formation is desired. This procedure may be used wherever bone healing is required, such as fractures including non-union fracture, congenital bone defects, maxillofacial defect correction, AVN i.e. early avascular necrosis, reconstructive surgery for of cancer defects, and remedy of bone degeneration caused by Osteomyelitis.

ABI procedure consists of harvesting bone marrow sample from the hipbone (posterior iliac crest). This sample is sent via specialized logistics for cell culture, cultivation and expansion i.e. cell multiplication in a medium over 4 or 5 weeks.

The cultured osteoblasts are then transported back to the hospital, where the autologous bone implant is carried out. The cultured osteoblasts, numbering in millions, are introduced in a special gel into the site of the bone defect. The gel is quickly absorbed by the tissue, and the autologous bone implant material is evenly dispersed throughout the site of the defect, giving enhanced bone healing.
