R-GENIN is a bone void filler consisting of purified bovine collagen, hydroxyapatite, tri-calcium phosphate, and demineralized bone matrix (DBM). The collagen component is biocompatible. After it is implanted, it resorbs and is later replaced by natural bone.R-GENIN is indicated for use in bony voids or gaps that are not intrinsic to the stability of the bony structure. The product should be gently packed into bony voids or gaps of the skeletal system (i.e., the extremities, posterolateral spine, and pelvis). These defects may be surgically created osseous defects or osseous defects created from traumatic injury to the bone. The product provides a bone void filler that resorbs and is replaced by the growth of new bone during the healing process. The bone graft can be mixed with autogenous blood prior to use at the physician's discretion.
A sterile implantable device consisting of demineralized bone matrix (DBM) processed from cadaveric human bone (allograft) and mixed with bioabsorbable synthetic minerals (e.g., calcium phosphate), intended to fill bony voids or gaps in the skeletal system (e.g., spine, pelvis, extremities) that have been surgically or traumatically created; it may also serve as a bone graft extender. It is designed to be resorbed/remodelled and replaced by host bone during the healing process. It is typically supplied as a kit which requires mixing to form a putty-like substance prior to implantation.
