Objective To explore the clinical application of allogeneic bone transplantation. Methods Related literatures on clinical application of various allograft bone materials of the past 5 years were extensively reviewed. Results The allografts could be processed into various kinds of transplanting materials, such as small blocks, large segments, morselised or granular material, and bone ring, so that they could be applied to bone defect filling, prosthesis revision, limb preservation after tumor resection, and joint fusion. All these applications ended up with good clinical results. However, complications resulted in thestructural transplantation of large block bones could be overlooked. Conclusion The main advantage of bone allograft is that it can be integrated with host bone and be remodelled, so as to reconstruct bone structure and function. How to accelerate their integration and remodelling while exerting normal functions is the problem that requires solution.
