    Abstract:
    Banking massive osteoarticular and other bone allografts were performed in our institute. For safeguarding recipients, the guidelines of donor selection were formulated and quality control was applied during procurement, preparation and storage of the grafts. Osteoarticular and bone grafts were harvested under aseptic or clean conditions, then, the bone and joint were cut into different shapes and sizes according to clinical needs, followed by removal of bone marrow and surface demineralization. In addition, sterilization with ethylene oxide or irradiation was carried out if necessary, at last the grafts were stored by freezing or freeze-drying. From October, 1991 to February, 1994, altogether 210 osteoarticular and bone grafts were used in 20 hospitals across the country, among them 120 grafts were implanted into 84 patients in our hospital with short-term satisfactory results.
