20230000608 · 2023-01-05 ·

A compliant scaffold incorporates a plurality of elongated apertures that form a geometric pattern enabling biaxial expansion or contraction. An elongated aperture has a pair of nodes located on opposing sides of the aperture and between a pair of antinodes located on the extended and opposing ends of the elongated aperture. A geometric pattern may have various geometric shapes, or tiles, between the plurality of apertures. The geometric tiles have a bounded perimeter formed by the plurality of elongated apertures. A substantial portion of the elongated apertures may be configured with the antinodes proximal to one of said pair of nodes of a separate elongated aperture; wherein the antinodes are closer to one of the pair of nodes than to any other antinode. This unique arrangement of the elongated apertures may be formed in biological material in vivo or ex vivo.

Human nipple areolar complex extracellular matrix scaffold and methods relating thereto

Methods of producing and methods of treatment using a nipple areolar complex extracellular matrix. A method for processing tissue comprises harvesting a human nipple areolar complex tissue, treating the tissue with a stabilizing medium, wherein the medium stabilizes the tissue during transport, decellularizing the tissue, and sterilizing the tissue to form a human nipple areolar complex extracellular matrix scaffold (ECMS). A method of treating an individual with a need for a nipple reconstruction comprises forming an ECMS and applying the ECMS to the individual for nipple areolar regeneration.

Surgical implant for marking soft tissue

An implantable tissue marker device is provided to be placed in a soft tissue site through a surgical incision. The device can include a bioabsorbable body in the form of a spiral and defining a spheroid shape for the device, the spiral having a longitudinal axis, and turns of the spiral being spaced apart from each other in a direction along the longitudinal axis. A plurality of markers can be disposed on the body, the markers being visualizable by a radiographic imaging device. The turns of the spiral are sufficiently spaced apart to form gaps that allow soft tissue to infiltrate between the turns and to allow flexibility in the device along the longitudinal axis in the manner of a spring.
