The bone and tendinous tissue bank insures the necessary of substantial bone and tissue contribution (sports traumatology) which autografts cannot deliver. The best results (integration, consolidation, the absence of adverse reactions etc) are obtained from the transplantation of allograft harvested from individuals below 50 years.
Out of the three classical procedures, the froze fulfills the fundamental desideratum of optimal conservation:
 - suppression of cadaverous disintegration phenomena;
 - unaltered preservation of cellular structure.
The ideal allograft must fulfill the following conditions: it must be immediately available and 100% secure, it must have identical mechanical properties and minimum morbidity, it must fix securely and immediately, it must ensure the rapid return to the competitional activity and offer excellent results in time.
KEY WORDS: allograft, bone and tendinous tissue bank, transplant.
