MAMMARY PROSTHESIS FILLED WITH EXPANDED POLYMER MICROSPHERES

摘要

A mammary prosthesis built from a sack of elastic material or biocompatible material having a sealed interior cavity with the sack having an anterior surface forming a dome and a posterior surface forming a base, with a sealed and seamless interior cavity filled with microspheres of foamed or expanded polymers or a combination of both. The sack may also be permeable to establish equilibrium between body fluids and interstitial volume of the microspheres.

主权项

1. An implant, comprising:
a) an implantable sack having a sealed interior cavity; b) wherein the sealed interior consists of microspheres made from biocompatible particulate material comprised of a foamed or thermo-expanded polymers; and c) wherein the biocompatible material has enough resilience to maintain the shape of the implant.
