Abstract
BACKGROUND CONTEXT: While successful spinal fusion is more likely when the site is augmented with autograft bone, iliac crest graft harvest is often associated with complications and persistent pain. Connective tissue progenitors (CTPs), aspirated from the marrow of the iliac crest and concentrated with allograft matrix and DBM provide an alternative to autograft harvest. Recent investigations have shown that the vertebral body provides progenitor cell concentrations superior to those of the iliac crest.
