title: [Development of injectable bone repair biomaterials].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To introduce the basic research and clinical application of the injectable bone repair biomaterials.
  
  
  METHODS
  The recent original articles about the injectable bone repair biomaterials were extensively reviewed.
  
  
  RESULTS
  The injectable bone repair biomaterials could fill irregularly shaped defects and might allow bone augmentation, both with minimal surgical intervention, and the injectable bone repair material had a good prospect by the medical profession and attach great importance to the academic material, but there were some deficiencies and shortcomings.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The injectable bone repair biomaterials may be a future approach to repair bone defect.
