Abstract
Background A new technique for harvesting autologous iliac bone grafts is described. Technique This technique is mainly based on performing carefully a limited subperiosteal dissection, obliquely directed bone cuts, and avoiding the stripping of the anterior thigh musculature. Conclusion This technique allowed to overcome almost all the problems that can occur when using the traditional technique for iliac crest graft harvesting and was used in over 100 cases of cervical discogenic disease with satisfactory results.
