Tissue
clay is perhaps the most exciting new development
that has come out of
Dr. Sachs’ research laboratories in the past ten
years. Tissue clay is a substance that can replace human
bone and cartilage. Dr. Sachs found that he could mix
Avitene (a fibrous, safe, FDA-approved, natural protein
that is often used in operating rooms to stop internal
bleeding) with the patient’s own blood to make
a putty like substance. This clay-like material is
injected
into the patient’s nose and molded into place.
Tissue clay is used for reconstructing noses and filling
in soft
tissue defects after trauma, cancer or poorly performed
cosmetic surgery.
