Product Overview
Ossigen® is a mineral-collagen composite matrix processed into blocks for surgical implantation for the repair of bony defects in the spine, extremities and pelvis.
The mineral particles are dispersed within collagen fibers forming a three-dimensional porous matrix consisting of 80 percent bone mineral and 20 percent collagen by dry weight.
Ossigen is provided as a sterile, dry material that is hydrated with autogenous bone marrow at the point of use. The block may be cut into shapes and is designed to retain its shape and physical integrity following implantation into a bony site.
