Tutoplast® Pericardium - 1 x 2.5cm

1 x 2.5cm sized dehydrated, sterile, human tissue grafts used for covering a tube in glaucoma shunt surgery.

Tutoplast® processed allografts are virally safe, dehydrated, sterile human tissue grafts. 5-year shelf life with room temperature storage. The pericardium patch grafts are comprised of: Low profile collagen with a nominal thickness of 400 microns Multi-directional matrix for superior surgical handling and suture utility A low-profile which prevents graft bulkiness over the implant The Tutoplast® process is a scientific and technology-based method of virally inactivating, preserving and sterilizing human tissue. The Tutoplast® benefits are vast: Immunologically safe Biologically and mechanically stable Five-year shelf life with room temperature storage Uniform and consistent in tissue quality Improved suturability and handling During the last 30 years, over 1 million Tutoplast® allografts have been surgically implanted without a single documented case of disease transmission. Surgical applications: Drainage implant/valve implantation Repair corneoscleral fistulas Trabeculectomy Repair exposed scleral buckles Phaco burns
