John P. Swift of Watertown, once near death from spinal tuberculosis, left Massachusetts General Hospital with a straightened spine after surgeons Brackett and Drummey grafted a two inch shin bone segment into his vertebra. The operation, inspired by Dr Murphy’s discovery, used dead bone to regenerate healthy bone.
