About CSMG Technologies' Tissue Welding/Bonding Technology The LTC tissue welding/bonding 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 7,000 human surgeries using more than 80 types of open and laparoscopic Laparoscopic A minimally-invasive surgical or diagnostic procedure that uses a flexible endoscope (laparoscope) to view and operate on structures in the abdomen. Mentioned in: Obstetrical Emergencies surgical procedures, demonstrating the technology is universal in its ability to repair soft biological tissue. These surgeries included lung, neurosurgery, nasal septum, intestine, stomach, skin, gall bladder gall bladder, small pear-shaped sac that stores and concentrates bile. It is connected to the liver (which produces the bile) by the hepatic duct. When food containing fat reaches the small intestine, the hormone cholecystokinin is produced by cells in the intestinal , liver, spleen, blood vessels, nerves, alba linea, uterus, bladder, gynecological gynecological /gy·ne·co·log·i·cal/ (-kah-loj´i-k'l) gynecologic. , fallopian tube, ovary and testicles Testicles Also called testes or gonads, they are part of the male reproductive system, and are located beneath the penis in the scrotum. Mentioned in: Testicular Cancer, Testicular Surgery, Vasectomy and dura-matter. Cosmetic surgeries conducted with this technology include breast reduction, breast implants, mastopexy mastopexy /mas·to·pexy/ (mas´to-pek?se) surgical fixation of a pendulous breast. mas·to·pex·y n.

Plastic surgery of the abdomen in which excess fatty tissue and skin are removed, usually for cosmetic purposes. 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 and European Union patents have been issued, and additional U.S. and foreign patents are pending, all owned by LTC. About CSMG Technologies, Inc.
