Description

From Which Medical Device

The MUTARS attachment tube from implantcast is an attachment device used primarily to aid soft tissue reconstruction and joint stability after major tumour resection. The tube is manufactured from Trevira (polyethylene terephthalate (PET)), can be cut without unravelling, takes sutures for the fixation of soft tissues, and soft tissues can grow into it.1
