About CSMG Technologies' Tissue Welding/Bonding
Technology
The LTC tissue bonding / welding device is a platform
technology that bonds and reconnects living soft biological
tissue through fusion without the use of foreign matter
in contrast with conventional wound closing devices
such as sutures, staples, sealant, or glues.
Surgeons at 27 Ukraine hospitals and clinics are using
the tissue welding/bonding technology in clinical trials.
They have completed more than 10,000 human surgeries
using more than 80 types of open and laparoscopic surgical
procedures, demonstrating the technology is universal
in its ability to repair soft biological tissue. These
surgeries included lung, neuro-surgery, nasal septum,
intestine, stomach, skin, gall bladder, liver, spleen,
blood vessels, nerves, alba linea, uterus, bladder,
gynecological, fallopian tube, ovary and testicles and
dura-matter. Cosmetic surgeries conducted with this
technology include breast reduction, breast implants,
mastopexy and abdominoplasty. The procedure involves
little or no scarring, while restoring the normal function
of the body organ or tissue.
The technology was invented and developed at the internationally
renowned E.O. Paton Institute of Electric Welding, National
Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, Kiev, Ukraine, headed
by Professor B.E. Paton. U.S., Australian, Canadian,
Ukraine and European Union patents have been issued,
and additional U.S. and foreign patents are pending,
all owned by LTC.
