Abstract
With an aging population, and an anticipated increase in overall fracture incidence, a sound understanding of bone healing and how technology can optimize this process is crucial. Concentrated bone marrow aspirate (cBMA) is a technology that capitalizes on skeletal stem and progenitor cells (SSPCs) to enhance the regenerative capacity of bone. This overview highlights the science behind cBMA, discusses the role of SSPCs in bone homeostasis and fracture repair, and briefly details the clinical evidence supporting the use of cBMA in fracture healing. Despite promising early clinical results, a lack of standardization in harvest and processing techniques, coupled with patient variability, presents challenges in optimizing the use of cBMA. However, cBMA remains an emerging technology that may certainly play a crucial role in the future of fracture healing augmentation.
