Devices for Preparation of a Bone Graft and Methods of Use Thereof

A clamp system for the preparation of a distal radius bone graft, comprising:

• a clamp configured to contact the graft and secure the graft within the clamp;
• and
• a base connected to the clamp, the base comprising a graft-engaging block;
• wherein the graft-engaging block comprises a graft-engaging surface configured to engage a first surface of the graft and secure the graft within the clamp,
• wherein the clamp is configured to continuously contact and secure the graft while at least a portion of the graft opposite the first surface is removed from the graft.

A method of preparing a distal radius bone graft comprising:

• obtaining the distal radius bone graft;
• positioning the distal radius bone graft into a clamp such that a first surface of the distal radius bone graft is removably coupled to a graft-engaging surface of the clamp and at least part of a proximal portion and at least part of a portion opposite the first surface of the distal radius bone graft is accessible;
• performing a depth cut on and approximately parallel to the proximal portion of the graft to form a prepared proximal face of the graft;
• removing the graft from the clamp;
• repositioning the graft into the clamp such that the first surface of the graft is removably coupled to the graft-engaging surface of the clamp such that the graft is flipped to expose a distal face of the graft to a surgical operator;
• and
• performing a width cut on and approximately parallel to the portion opposite the first surface of the graft to form a prepared face of the graft.
