A device for containing bone graft material, comprising:
- a first shell member defining a first portion of an inner sleeve and a first portion of an outer sleeve to form a first bone graft collecting space therebetween;
- a second shell member defining a second portion of the inner sleeve and a second portion of the outer sleeve to form a second bone graft collecting space therebetween, the first portion of the inner sleeve and the first portion of the outer sleeve of the first shell being openable and closable relative to the second portion of the inner sleeve and the second portion of the outer sleeve of the second shell such that, in a closed configuration, a contour of the outer sleeve substantially matches a contour of an exterior of a bone about which the device is to be employed.
