What is it indicated for?

MicroFuse TM Bone Void Filler, combined with autograft or bone marrow aspirate, is intended for use in filling bony voids or gaps of the extremities and pelvis that are not intrinsic to the stability of the bony structure. These osseous defects may be surgically created or created from traumatic injury to the bone. MicroFuseTM provides a bone void filler that resorbs and is replaced with bone during the healing process.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
