Abstract

See full text

A system for containing fumes for a bone cement component includes a vial holder configured for receiving and holding a vial therein. A holder chamber is configured to receive and secure the vial holder therein such that when engaged with the vial holder, the vial holder and the holder chamber form an enclosure for containing the vial. A vial-breaking device is disposed in the holder chamber and is configured to break the vial to release contents of the vial into the holder chamber. A port is in communication with the holder chamber through a filter so that when a vacuum is drawn at the port by a dispensing device, the contents of the vial can be drawn through the filter and into the dispensing device and the fumes are contained in the enclosure. Methods of use are disclosed.
