Frequently asked questions

Why use DBM in addition to a mineralized bone graft?

Thanks to the BMP proteins physiologically contained in F-PHOENIX-DBM ® demineralized cortical bone fibers, osteoinduction is guaranteed. PHOENIX® mineralized bone graft and F-PHOENIX-DBM® demineralized cortical bone fiber blends secure bone fusion through combined osteoconduction and osteoinduction.

Is allograft transplantation really safe?

At TBF, the quality and safety protocol for tissue harvesting follows rigorous steps, including clinical and biological graft selection. In addition to this, we use exclusive, secure processes for in-depth cleaning and inactivation of viruses and prions. All our grafts have a 5-year shelf-life and undergo gamma radiosterilization. Rigorous controls are carried out throughout the process.

I would like to donate a femoral head to TBF. What should I do?

The collection activity must be set up via a tripartite agreement between the head of the hospital, the collecting surgeon and the Tissue Bank director. TBF provides team training, a collection kit and weekly telephone follow-up. The surgeon is responsible for informing the patient that surgical residue tissue is to be harvested for therapeutic use.
