Abstract: A subcutaneous prosthesis for mammaplasty repair comprising a netting having a generally circular shape with a V shaped opening extending from its center. The prosthesis having a metallic reinforcing wire that extends around the periphery of the circular netting. The ends of the reinforcing wire being maintained in position by a blocking piece. When the prosthesis is deployed, by tightening the reinforcing wire the prosthesis can be formed into a conical shape suitable for mammary repair.
Abstract: The invention provides a device for assembling a urgical needle (700) and a suture thread (110, 115), the device comprising an extractor device (300, 400, 500) for extracting one segment of suture thread (110, 115) from a bundle (100) of segments (110, 115) the extractor device (300, 400, 500) comprising means (322, 324, 400) suitable for displacing segments (110, 115) by air flowing transversely to the longitudinal direction of the bundle, a suction inlet (322, 324) suitable for being placed laterally relative to the bundle (100), and two sliding surfaces (310) suitable for guiding one segment (110, 115) to the suction orifice (322, 324) when the segments (110, 115) are displaced by the flow of air.
