ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a relatively simple, low cost and effective apparatus for mixing and discharging bone cement into a discharging device such as a syringe, while also providing an improved mixing action and producing minimal fumes. The syringe may be connected to an exit port located between the first and second end of the apparatus. The apparatus is able to both prevent and enable communication between a mixing region of the apparatus and the exit port due to presence of a valve and may further comprise a base which may be integral with the valve so that movement of the base creates movement of the valve within the apparatus.
