Chronos™ Granules Bone Graft Substitute |  | | General Information |  |
| Vendor |  | Synthes, Inc. | | Item |  | Chronos™ Granules Bone Graft Substitute | | Features |  | A synthetic cancellous bone graft substitute, which remodels into bone, is easy to use and has a clinical track record of twenty years. Its synthetic origin provides unsurpassed safety. Consists of pure beta-tricalcium phosphate and has an excellent in vivo behavior. Its strength is similar to that of cancellous bone (7.5 ± 1 MPa), and its scaffold provides an ideal structure for osteoconductivity. Gradually resorbed and replaced by new bone, this remodelling process takes 6-18 months. Chronos can be used in all spinal applications instead of cancellous bone graft: postero-lateral fusion, interbody fusion (as cage filling material), vertebrectomies (as filling material for vertebral implants). Chronos has also indications for trauma and cranio-maxillofacial surgery. | | Approval |  | Worldwide | | Product Number |  | Inquire | | Pricing |  | Inquire |
