Abstract: The invention relates to a preparation and application device for materials which are to be prepared as a paste-like, flowable mass from at least one powder or granulate component and one liquid component, especially bone cement, with an elongated mixing cylinder for receiving the components to be mixed, comprising in one end region a sealable through-opening that can optionally be provided with a discharge unit for the paste-like material to be prepared, and a piston which can be inserted into the other, opposite, open end. The piston is displaceable in the cylinder and seals against the inner wall of the cylinder. The piston is penetrated by an elongated mixing shaft sealed against the piston, and a mixing mechanism is disposed at the cylinder inside-end of the mixing shaft and a handle disposed at the cylinder outside-end of the mixing shaft.

Abstract: The invention relates to a preparation and application device (10) for implant materials consisting of at least one powder or granulate component and one liquid component, which are to be prepared immediately before use. Said device comprises a first container (12) which holds the powder or granulate component in a sterile, closed-off manner; and a second container (54) which holds the liquid component in a sterile, closed-off manner and which can be connected to the first container (12). Means are provided for producing an overflow connection between the two containers, on a mixing mechanism (30) which is located on a mixing shaft (28) that is guided out of the container in a sealed manner. The first container is configured in such a way that it can he connected to a negative pressure source.
