[Bone transplantation and AIDS].
The necessary obligation to carefulness at homogeneous transplantation of bone in concern of the AIDS epidemiology are being presented. According to the actual state of the HIV epidemiology a single examination of femur head donors contains an almost unmeasurable small risk of a virus transmission. Prior condition to an examination of the donor and to the usability of bones is the informed consent of the donor. Also important is the education of the recipient about the remaining risk, a provable documentation and a continuous observation of the HIV epidemiology.
