## Indications for use
Vitoss BA Injectable 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 BA Injectable is indicated for use in the treatment of surgically created osseous defects or osseous defects created from traumatic injury to the bone. Vitoss BA Injectable is intended to be used for filling bony voids and gaps of the skeletal system (i.e. the extremities and pelvis), and may be combined with saline, autogenous blood, and/or bone marrow. Following placement in the bony void or gap, the scaffold resorbs and is replaced with bone during the healing process.
