ABSTRACT:
Methods for treating osteolytic bone lesions of all kinds are disclosed. The method includes making two holes in the bone adjacent the lesion and first applying a negative pressure source to one hole and then injecting a flushing fluid into the other. The method also includes replacing the flushing fluid line with a source of, at least, bioimplantable material to fill the void left by the flushed out bone lesion.
