More Information
Summary:The present disclosure provides improved compositions comprising a solution of a platelet-derived growth factor and a biocompatible matrix that are useful for bone fusion procedures, such as spine fusion procedures. The compositions advantageously comprise a the PDGF solution and biocompatible matrix in about a 2:1 volume to weight (mL:g) ratio such that the compositions can be readily applied to a site of bone fusion using a syringe or cannula. In particular embodiments, the composition is useful in conjunction with a spine fusion cage in a spine fusion procedure. The present disclosure also provides methods of performing fusion procedures, such as spine fusion, and kits for fusion procedures.
