AB Currently, modern tissue banks routinely supply requested bone and
soft-tissue allografts. These allografts are safe if tissue-bank
personnel adhere to the existing methodology for excluding any donors
with potential for disease transmission. The authors' discard rate after
excision of tissues has been approximately 18%, reflecting their concern
for allograft safety. The preparation of significant numbers of
allografts is labor intensive and very expensive, as is multiphasic
screening of donors. However, long-term success with a large number of
bone or soft-tissue recipient patients has led physicians and patients
to have confidence in the safety of allografts prepared as described.
