What is it indicated for?

BIOSORB® Resorbable Void Filler is a resorbable calcium salt bone void filler intended to fill bony voids or gaps of the skeletal system (i.e. the extremities, spine and pelvis,) caused by trauma or surgery, that are not intrinsic to the stability of the bony structure.

BIOSORB® Resorbable Void Filler does not possess sufficient mechanical strength to support reduction of a defect prior to soft and hard tissue ingrowth. Rigid fixation techniques are recommended as needed to assure stabilization of the defect in all plans.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
