My surgeon has used bone graft he took from osteotomies done on my own spinous processes. My understanding is that he didn't do further damage to the spine to use bone, he simply has reutilized the bone who otherwise would be wasted. He used bone cut to realign the spine and correct the deformity.
I was surprised because it was not taken from the hip or the iliac crest.
Anyone out there who have had surgery having this same bone graft technique?
So far, it seems successful.
