Cook Group Inc introduces the Surgisis AFP Fistula Plug for fistula re­pairs. Surgisis AFP is a cone-shaped medical device de­signed for easy placement by the surgeon into a fistula channel. Once in place, Surgisis AFP serves as a bio­scaffold to facilitate well-organized tissue re­generation that closes the fistula.

The Surgisis biomaterial takes on the cellular characteristics of the surrounding tissue and serves as a scaffold on which human tissue grows. As the biomaterial is replaced with cells, the scaffold is no longer needed and is absorbed by the body.
