Summary:Described is a method for the manufacture of intervertebral spacers using as raw material the human femoral bone in an inert state for being used in novel orthopaedic treatments as a new product for patients suffering spine disorders. The method mainly includes the following steps: transversal cut of the bone; decaying the inner surface of the bone; machining the inner surface of the bone; assembling the pieces of bone with a surface machined according to the assembly characteristics; drilling an ovoid block of bone; turning the assembly shank; assembling the ovoid block of bone to the bone cylinder; roughing the assembled and mechanised ovoid block of bone. The method presents an affordable alternative, reliable with regard to the commercial intervertebral spacer. Se establece un método de fabricación para espaciadores intervertebrales usando como materia prima el hueso femoral humano en estado inerte para usarse en nuevos tratamientos ortopédicos como nuevo producto al servicio de pacientes con padecimientos en la columna. El método contempla fundamentalmente las etapas de: corte transversal del hueso; careado de la superficie interior del hueso; maquinado de superficie interior del hueso; ensamble de piezas de hueso con una cara maquinada con las características de ensamble; taladro de bloque ovoide de hueso; torneado de vástago de ensamble; ensamble de bloque ovoide de hueso con cilindro de hueso; desbaste de bloque ovoide de hueso ensamblado y mecanizado de bloque de hueso. El método presenta una alternativa de bajo costo confiable respecto a los espaciadores intervertebrales comerciales.
