Claim:
1. A method for substantially reducing or eliminating extravasation of a bone cement used to structurally reinforce an interior cavity of a bony member, comprising the acts of: providing a first flowable quantity of a bone cement in solid polymerized particulate form; providing a second flowable quantity of a bone cement in liquid form, wherein the second flowable quantity includes at least a dry powder component and a liquid monomer previously mixed together to form a liquid; and administering said first and said second flowable quantities of said bone cements into said interior cavity of said bony member in a manner effective to occlude sources of extravasation in said bony member and to substantially reduce or eliminate extravasation of said second flowable quantity of said bone cement; whereby, solidification of said liquid bone cement forms a substantially homogenous matrix that substantially reinforces said bony member.
