The Biodesign Otologic Repair Graft aids the healing process of various otologic procedures.
Take a minimally invasive approach to tympanic membrane repair by eliminating donor site autologous tissue and additional scarring for the patient.
The Biodesign® Otologic Repair Graft is a multi-layer biomaterial that aids in the natural healing process in various otologic procedures including but not limited to myringoplasty and tympanoplasty. It offers an off-the-shelf alternative to autologous tissue that allows for a minimally invasive approach to tympanic membrane repair. It also eliminates the need for a donor site and, therefore, creates no additional scars for the patient.
Reliable
Closure
Material remodels into natural host tissue with an overall success of 91% across published literature and no statistically significant difference in audiometric results when compared to temporalis fascia.
Excellent
Handling
Biodesign® material is easy to manipulate, allowing for improved surgical precision during graft placement, and can be placed using either an endoscopic or microscopic technique.
Time
Saving
The Biodesign® Otologic Repair Graft reduces the need to harvest autologous tissue, significantly decreasing intraoperative time.

The Biodesign Otologic Repair Graft is a natural extracellular matrix (ECM) – a complex latticework of proteins and structural molecules that acts as a scaffold for cells. Biodesign’s proprietary processing methodology decellularizes the material while preserving natural matrix molecules such as collagen, proteoglycans, and glycosaminoglycans.
The Otologic Repair Graft comes in five sizes and two shapes ranging from a circle 0.4 cm in diameter to a square measuring 5 x 5 cm.
Tips to help get the best possible results:
– Ensure adequate blood supply.
– Size the graft to allow for tissue overlap.
– Place the graft dry or hydrate it for less than one minute before placement.

What is Biodesign?
Biodesign is a platform technology behind numerous tissue-repair products that span multiple medical specialties. Biodesign is natural extracellular matrix (ECM) derived from porcine small intestinal submucosa (SIS).
The ECM is a complex latticework of proteins and structural molecules that helps guide the growth of cells.1
The proprietary processing methodology decellularizes the SIS material while preserving natural matrix molecules such as collagen, proteoglycans, and glycosaminoglycans.
The result is a scaffold that, when implanted, provides a location for host cells to infiltrate and remodel into vascularized tissue. 3
How does Biodesign work?
There are three essential components to healing: a scaffold, signals, and cells. Biodesign’s open lattice structure provides a scaffold for tissue ingrowth.3
The body’s signaling mechanisms help patient cells infiltrate the scaffold and completely remodel into natural host tissue.
The Biodesign graft (top) allows for the substantial growth of organized tissue, as seen in this biopsy sample, taken eight months after implantation (bottom). The above images are of the Biodesign Plastic Surgery Matrix implanted in breast tissue.4
