Significant donor site morbidity (3–61%) has been associated with tri-cortical iliac crest bone graft harvesting and reconstruction of the defect has been shown to reduce it. Chitra-HABG (Chitra-Hydroxyapatite-Bio-active glass ceramic composite) is an indigenously developed ceramic which has been evaluated as a bone graft substitute. To prospectively validate the hypothesis that iliac crest donor site morbidity is a structural issue and reconstructing the crest reduces its incidence. The study also evaluates the efficacy of Chitra - HABG as a material for reconstructing the crest.Introduction
