Osteoplug and Osteoplug-C are bioresorbable implants, made out of Polycaprolactone, used to restore post-trephination burr hole defect and fresh craniotomy cuts by promoting tissue ingrowth, leading to a shift from purely cosmesis to regeneration of damaged tissues.
It does not require fixation
It conforms to a defect, thus maximising direct contact with viable patient bone
Osteomesh is a bioresorbable implant, made out of Polycaprolactone, used for the repair of orbital fractures, leading to a shift in orbital reconstructive surgery from purely repairing bony defects to regeneration of damaged tissues.
Restores the structural integrity of the orbital floor by bridging the defect and preventing orbital content from herniating into the adjacent periorbital sinuses
Prevents extra-ocular motility limitations, is malleable and easy for surgeon handling
Does not need to be contoured
Does not require fixation
Can be easily cut with scissors
Manufactured with a porous interconnected micro-architecture that demonstrates mechanical properties similar to human cancellous bone
Upon implantation, blood and surrounding cells are absorbed into the pores of the scaffold via capillary action - creating a regenerative niche that is ideal for tissue formation
Polycaprolactone (PCL) is a biodegradable polymer that degrades and resorbs fully in vivo by hydrolysis which is then metabolised by the body
It has a gradual resorption profile, depending on the patients anatomy and metabolism, of approximately 18-24 months,
Possesses improved resorption rate that maintains mechanical integrity during healing process
Osteoplug is designed to fit seamlessly into the burr hole defects, fresh craniotomy cuts. Osteoplug-C is designed to fit perfectly into the post-trephination burr hole defects. This ensures direct interaction between surrounding calvarial bone, allowing repair cells to use the implant as a scaffold, promoting bone tissue regeneration
