Abstract
1. Fifteen cases of bone transplantation for fibrous union of fractures of long bones are described, using boiled minced cancellous bone from cadavers. One transplant became infected but the infection responded to treatment. 2. In one patient with non-union of the shaft of the humerus, bony union was not obtained, but a good functional result obviated further treatment. 3. It is suggested that this relatively simple method of bone transplantation could be used more widely if its potentialities were appreciated more fully.
