CSMG Technologies Issues Letter to Shareholders Updating Live Tissue Connect Developments.


CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas Corpus Christi is a coastal city and the county seat of Nueces CountyGR6 in the U.S. state of Texas. It is part of the region known as South Texas.  -- CSMG CSMG Creative Sales Marketing Group  Technologies President and CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization. Typically the president of the company, the CEO reports to the Chairman of the Board.  Donald S. Robbins today issued a letter to shareholders, updating the most recent development with subsidiary Live Tissue Connect.

Dear Shareholders:

We are extremely pleased to issue this update to report on several important milestones we have achieved over the last several months regarding the surgical human tissue welding technology, being developed by our Live Tissue Connect subsidiary.

On July 2, we reported that LTC LTC

 filed a 510(k) submission with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA FDA

) for a human vessel and duct sealing electro-surgical generator, and two sealing instruments. A 510(k) filing seeks approval to sell medical devices in the U.S., a key market for LTC. In that announcement, we stated that information regarding procedures using the LTC technology, and technical information regarding the technology, was being removed from the CSMG web site pending FDA clearance. Currently we are working through the normal procedures of the US FDA approval process.

In late July, we announced a new domain name for CSMG's website, www.csmgtechinternational.com, for our international operations Internal Operations (I.O., IO or I/O) is a fictional American Intelligence Agency in Wildstorm comics. It was originally called International Operations. I.O. first appeared in WildC.A.T.S. volume 1 #1 (August, 1992) and was created by Brandon Choi and Jim Lee. . A separate website for LTC, www.livetissueconnect.com is under construction and should be available within a few weeks.

We have started the certification process and are seeking to gain European market approval via a CE Mark certification before this year-end. We are anticipating having the above generator and instruments, which address several surgical procedures Surgical procedures have long and possibly daunting names. The meaning of many surgical procedure names can often be understood if the name is broken into parts. For example in splenectomy, "ectomy" is a suffix meaning the removal of a part of the body. "Splene-" means spleen. , in the European market by mid-2008 via various marketing arrangements.

Our strategy to maximize LTC revenues by forming five wholly-owned LTC medical procedure-specific subsidiaries, which we announced in May, is proving opportune and timely. In essence, we were certain that by creating five separate subsidiaries, we will maximize LTC's ability to enter into more lucrative and focused marketing agreements, partnerships, joint ventures, or other types of arrangements.

The targeted surgical specialty surgical specialty A specialty of health care in which interventions constitute a significant component of Pt management Examples OB/GYN, ophthalmology, ENT, surgery–cardiothoracic, colorectal, general, neurologic, orthopedic, plastic, urology.  and the related newly-established subsidiaries are:

* Gynecology and General Surgery (GSG GSG Grenzschutzgruppe (German: Border Protection Unit; anti-terrorist group)
GSG Global Scenario Group
GSG Goldman Sachs Group, Inc.
GSG Gunslinger Girl (anime)
GSG Ground-Signal-Ground

* Orthopedics and Arthroscopy Arthroscopy Definition

Arthroscopy is the examination of a joint, specifically, the inside structures. The procedure is performed by inserting a specifically designed illuminated device into the joint through a small incision.

* Colon Rectal Surgeries (Colorectal Connection Management)

* Pulmonary/Lung (Pulmonary Sealing Sciences)

* Urology urology

Medical specialty dealing with the urinary system and male reproductive organs. It traces its origin to medieval lithologists, itinerant healers who specialized in surgical removal of bladder stones.
 (Urological Tissue Welding)

We are pleased to report that LTC is attracting interest from many significant medical device companies and distributors interested in representing, licensing, and/or marketing some aspect of the LTC technology. We believe each LTC wholly-owned subsidiary represents a distinct manufacturing, marketing, or licensing opportunity, and represents a major commercial opportunity for our company. We are confident this approach adds considerable value to the company.

Significantly, we also anticipate the first manufactured product meeting US and international standards to be available for sales and distribution prior to year end. To this purpose we have opened discussions with a number of independent distributors worldwide which is in addition to the aforementioned major medical device companies interested in licensing, distributing, manufacturing or marketing the product. In anticipation of the successful completion of these milestones we have started developing a highly experienced and well qualified LTC management, sales and distribution team.

Our LTC management team, along with our world-class medical device design and manufacturing partnerships in the U.S., coupled with our recent filing with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, brings LTC's specialized medical device technology ever closer to the medical industry.

Looking forward, we have identified 12 procedure-specific divisions, but only established subsidiaries for the first five we regard as closest to product and market completion. This subsidiary structure should enable us to leverage LTC's R&D across multiple medical disciplines. As an example, the R&D effort that went into developing a sealing device for gynecological gynecological /gy·ne·co·log·i·cal/ (-kah-loj´i-k'l) gynecologic.  arteries and veins might be leveraged into a similar device for urological procedures though would likely be different in shape and/or size. This structure also lets potential marketing partner's select surgical specialties In all modern medical training programs, a surgeon must specialise in an area.

The exact number of recognized specialties depends on one's purpose in counting them. The following specialties are often described:
  • Cardiothoracic surgery
  • General surgery
 where they have strong physician relationships and/or pre-existing distribution channels.

On July 10, we announced, receipt of another tissue welding patent in Ukraine for "Method For Welding of Biological Tissue, Control Method For Welding Tissue (variants) and Apparatus For Biological Tissue Welding (variants)." This approval follows a similar U.S. patent which was already approved. The basic tissue welding science was invented and developed at the internationally renowned E.O. Paton Institute of Electric Welding, National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine in Kiev, which is headed by Professor B.E. Paton

Approval was granted by the Russian Federal Service of Health Care and Social Development for a tissue welding electro surgery generator and eight instruments for use in Russian hospitals and clinics. The approval is for a wide range of procedures the electro-surgical tissue welding generator and ancillary instruments can perform.
