ABSTRACT
Introduction. One of the most important technologies developed in the last fifty years has been the tissue and bone banking technology, this technology has allowed an important improvement in treatment of multiple diseases of the musculoskeletal system. Historic background. The first successful bone xenograft was reported in 1668 by Job Janszoon Van Meekeren, the first successful bone allograft report was done by William MacEwen in 1879. During the second half of the XIX century and the XX century there was a lot of investigation about bone grafts, at the same time there was an important technologic development that allows the arise of the bone and tissue banks in the first half of the XX century. The first projects of bone and tissue banks in Mexico were done in the decade of 1940, the majority of these projects were abandoned because there were many limitations in the country for this institutions. Utilization of bone allografts in Mexico. Since September the 26th of 2000 until June the 30th of 2004 this bone and tissue bank has provided 4,175 allografts utilized in 2,451 surgical procedures, these surgical procedures were done in 27 states around the Mexican Republic. Research. There are several research projects in our Bone and Tissue Banking, the most important of them is the culture of autologous chondrocites for treatment of chondral defects. Conclusion. The availability of bone allografts procured, processed and distributed according to national and international standards increases the therapeutic options and outcomes for our patients and contributes to the advance of the national orthopedic surgery.
