Abstract
Bone grafting is commonly employed to effect bony union in areas of spinal instability or bone defects. Both fibrous and osseous unions may provide satisfactory grafts. Radiologic assessment is important and when done with understanding can add to the evaluation of the graft by the surgeon. Early and complete information regarding graft failure can lead to modifications of treatment and in some instances lead to repeat surgery. The recognition of a donor site is aided by familiarity with their usual locations and forms. The defect of the donor site is man-made and usually has a rectangular, quadrilateral, or triangular outline.
