## Indications for use
VITOSS@Scaffold Synthetic Cancellous Bone Void Filler is intended for use as a bone void filler for voids or gaps that are not intrinsic to the stability of the bony structure. VITOSS Scaffold is indicated for use in the treatment of surgically created osseous defects or osseous defects resulting from traumatic injury to the bone. VITOSS should not be used to treat large defects that in the surgeon's opinion would fail to heal spontaneously. VITOSS Scaffold is intended to be packed into bony voids or gaps of the skeletal system (i.e., the extremities, spine and pelvis) and may be combined with autogenous blood and/or bone marrow. Following placement in the bony void or gap, the calcium phosphate scaffold resorbs and is replaced with bone during the healing process. The VITOSS-Filled Cartridge is intended for use as a piston syringe system for the aspiration of autogenous blood and/or bone marrow. This Cartridge provides the surgeon with a convenient way to mix autologous blood or bone marrow with Vitoss Scaffold@and deliver the material to the orthopaedic surgical site.
