Bone Grafting is one of the commonest operations performed in Orthopaedics.Its indications include non-union, delayed union, packing bone cysts and cavities, elevating depressed articular fractures and reconstruction of large bone defects.Intra-oral sites are often preferred since they allow harvesting of bone from the area adjacent to the reconstruction.Intra-oral bone,grafts have also been used in other reconstructive procedures in maxillo-facial area, for example in tumor, trauma and orthognathic surgery.This book is useful to clinicians and clinician scientists in the field of Orthopaedics, Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery and Maxillo-Facial Surgery who are commonly presented with the clinical problem of reconstructing bone defects
