What are the risks of using an allograft?
The Rocky Mountain Tissue Bank makes every effort to insure that each allograft is as safe and risk-free as possible. Extensive medical screening of all donated tissues is done. All medical testing recommended by the FDA and American Association of Tissue Banks are performed on each graft. All tests must be ‘negative’ before the tissues are released for transplant. There has never been a reported case of infectious disease transmission from an allograft which was processed using the procedure followed by the Rocky Mountain Tissue Bank.
