A flexible, demineralized unitary bone sheet comprised of cortical cancellous
bone
having a residual calcium weight of 3.0% to 8.0% with a hyaluronic acid component
having a molecular weight of 700,000 to 1,500,000 with the weight of the same ranging
from 1% to about 5% of the total sheet weight. The bone sheet is adapted for use
during the in vivo repair of a mammalian or animal skeletal system with the thickness
of the cortical cancellous sheet ranging from 2.0 mm to about 8.0 mm. The bone
sheet has sufficient flexibility to allow the sheet to be shaped to conform to
the configuration of a skeletal region to be repaired and sufficient tensile strength
to allow the sheet to be so shaped without damage to the sheet.
