Patent number: 8399619Abstract: A collagen material is disclosed and can include a plurality of particles. Each particle can include an elongated, thin body having one or more arcuate portions and one or more straight portions. Further, each particle can include one or more fibers extending from the body. One or more fibers of one particle can engage the one or more fibers of one or more other particles to establish a matrix of material, where a cross-linking agent may be added in the collagen material. Furthermore, an additive including a radiocontrast medium, a drug, a cellular matter, a biological factor, or a combination thereof may be added to the collagen mixture.Type: GrantFiled: June 30, 2006Date of Patent: March 19, 2013Assignee: Warsaw Orthopedic, Inc.Inventors: Hai H.
