Explant Express® is a breast implant suction retrieval device engineered to help plastic and reconstructive surgeons remove ruptured implants while minimizing contact between silicone gel and the surgical field. By connecting to standard operating room suction, the device simplifies ruptured breast implant explantation without adding capital equipment or requiring advanced training.
"FDA clearance of Explant Express® represents an important milestone in advancing tools that support efficiency, cleanliness, and control during ruptured breast implant removal procedures," said Joseph Harr, Surgical Sales Manager at Applied Medical Technology, Inc. "Traditional explantation techniques can be time-consuming and messy. Explant Express® was designed to reduce operating time and help maintain a clean surgical field - without disrupting existing workflows."
Explant Express® is intended for use during ruptured breast implant explantation procedures and features an intuitive, ergonomic design suitable for a wide range of implant sizes.
Key features of Explant Express® include:
- Rapid removal of ruptured silicone breast implants
- Universal suction compatibility with standard operating room equipment
- Ergonomic, no-slip design suitable for all hand sizes
- Separable chamber allowing post-procedural inspection of retrieved material
Manufactured in the United States, Explant Express® expands Applied Medical Technology's portfolio of FDA-cleared surgical solutions. Commercial availability of Explant Express® will be announced in the coming weeks.
