## Indications for use
BioPlus is an osteoconductive bone substitute shaped as granules or blocks (cancellous, cortical or cortico-cancellous) that are intended to be used to fill voids and gaps that are not intrinsic to the stability of the bone structure. These gaps or voids may be located in the extremities, spine, pelvis, or cranium. The granules or blocks may be pressed into the void or into the surgical site by hand. The BioPlus granules or blocks provide void filling material that acts as a temporary support medium. The granules or blocks are not intended to provide structural support during the healing process. The implant is radio-opaque. BioPlus is biocompatible and resorbs in the body as bone ingrowth occurs.
