What is it indicated for?
AlloX2 Tissue Expanders are intended for temporary (less than six months) subcutaneous or submuscular implantation to develop surgical flaps and additional tissue coverage required in a wide variety of applications, particularly to aid in reconstructions following mastectomy, to aid in the treatment of underdeveloped breasts and to aid in treatment of soft tissue deformities.
Additionally, the AlloX2 Tissue Expanders contain a silicone drain component which allows access to and drainage of latent fluids from the periprosthetic space. This drain component does not replace short-term, immediate, intraoperatively placed drains.
Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
