Abstract
Whereas vDBM reduced the overall bioburden within a contaminated surgical site of posterolateral fusion, the addition of the vancomycin to the DBM reduced the fusion capability of the DBM graft. The addition of ICBG to vDBM restored the fusion capability of the graft while reducing the overall infection.
