Abstract
Proplast reconstruction of iliac crest defects resulting from bone grafts taken for anterior lumbar and cervical fusions is described. The procedure improves the cosmetic result, prevents postoperative muscle herniation and may decrease postoperative donor site pain. It is a simple procedure with low complication rate when performed in the manner described.Entities:
