Publication number: 20220039937Abstract: A device for maintaining or achieving soft tissue expansion applicable to any body region already temporarily expanded including: an adhesive element deformable and capable of adapting to the shape of this body region, and which can then itself become mechanically rigid enough to resist tendency of the expanded tissue to recoil or to which a second material can be applied to form a stent adapted to the shape of the body area to provide the necessary structural rigidity to prevent recoil of the expansion and thereby induce its retention of its expanded shape after the stent is removed.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 25, 2021Publication date: February 10, 2022Applicant: KhouRigotti, LLCInventors: Roger K. Khouri, Gino Rigotti, Guido Baroni

Patent number: 10350373Abstract: A device for the deposition of adipose tissue, comprising: a) a syringe for grafting the tissue, b) a system for controlling the advance of the plunger of the syringe, which receives information about the movement of the syringe in the direction of withdrawal from an external system for detecting the movement of the syringe, and c) an external system for detecting the movement of the syringe. The control system determines the advance of the plunger of the syringe on the basis of the movement of the syringe in the direction of withdrawal and on the basis of the quantity of adipose tissue per unit of length of deposition. The advantages deriving from the use of this device in lipomodelling (or fat grafting) are in an automatic control of deposition of the adipose tissue and a correct uniformity of the graft.Type: GrantFiled: August 5, 2013Date of Patent: July 16, 2019Inventors: Paolo Patete, Guido Baroni

Patent number: 8858628Abstract: A tissue expansion device implanted in a non-activated state over a region of desired tissue growth. Once implanted and positioned the device is activated creating a supporting structure that creates a convex shaped dome over the underlying tissue. The convex shaped dome formed by the tissue expansion device places a tensile stress against the underlying tissue that promotes tissue growth. Alone or with the introduction of tissue enhancing agents and/or adipose tissue, new tissue within the convex shaped void grows until a balance is achieved eliminating the induced stress. Periodically the tissue expansion devices is again activated and enlarged creating an even larger void. Again, the newly enlarged void places additional tensile stress on the underlying tissue thus repeating the cycle of new tissue growth. Once the desired amount of tissue growth has been achieved the device is deactivated and removed.Type: GrantFiled: December 14, 2007Date of Patent: October 14, 2014Assignee: Allergan, Inc.Inventors: Gino Rigotti, Guido Baroni

Publication number: 20110317890Abstract: A system and method for advanced scanning and for simulation of the deformation of surfaces are particularly advantageous for the application of three-dimensional scanning in the medical field. The system and the method allow obtaining digital models of surfaces characterized by an elevated signal-to-noise ratio and by the absence of artefacts due to the movements of the subject during the timing of the scanning. In particular, therefore, the method and system allow obtaining digital models of the surface of particular anatomical areas adapted for the pre-surgery planning, for the estimation and the evaluation of the surgical outcome and for the simulation of the deformation of the bodily surfaces due to predetermined movements performed by the subject.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 22, 2009Publication date: December 29, 2011Applicant: POLITECNICO DI MILANOInventors: Guido Baroni, Marco Riboldi, Paolo Patete
