A technology management company CSMG Technologies, Inc., is focused on commercializing human live tissue bonding. The tissue welding technology can be used in both open and thoracoscopic procedures.

What makes the LTC tissue bonding / welding device so unique is that it bonds and reconnects living soft biological tissue through RF fusion without the use of foreign materials or conventional wound closing devices such as sutures, staples, sealant or glues.

The current bonding techniques such as tissue coagulation methods used in the operating rooms creates odor and smoke which causes carcinogens in the air that can carry infectious microorganisms such as HIV and Hepatitis from high risk patients during surgery. Not so with this device. It is smokeless and odorless, no charring, searing, necrosis or leakage, it uses a low heat delivery method aimed at the restoration of the normal functions of the live organs and tissue.

Other advantages of this technology is more rapid healing, leaves little or no scaring visible to the naked eye after a few months, and there is minimal blood loss throughout the procedure and can actually shorten time of surgical procedures.

BusinessWire reports that this device demonstrated its universal ability to repair soft biological tissue in clinical trials that are being conducted in the Ukraine resulting in 6,000 human surgeries using almost 70 types of open and laparoscopic surgical procedures. These surgeries included lung, neuro-surgery, nasal septum, intestine, stomach, skin, gall bladder, liver, spleen, blood vessels, nerves, alba linea, uterus, bladder, gynecology, fallopian tube, ovary and testicles, dura-matter, with little or no scarring, while restoring the normal function of the body organ and tissue.

CSMG owns the exclusive world rights to the medical device platform technology. United States patent number 09/022,869.
