Abstract

A bone graft containment device includes a body extending longitudinally from a first end to a second end. The body is defined via a strut framework sized and shaped to correspond to an outer surface of a target bone. The strut framework defines an interior space configured to receive a bone graft or bone graft substitute material. The device also includes a first grasping structure and a second grasping structure extending from an exterior of the body. The first and second grasping structures are configured to receive a bone fixation plate therebetween.
