Biovance Amniotic Membrane and Interfyl Connective Tissue Matrix for Foot and Ankle Procedures

Kirk A. McCullough, MD (Leawood, KS), discusses the benefits and applications of augmentation with placental tissue products, including Biovance® amniotic membrane and Interfyl® connective tissue matrix (CTM), for foot and ankle orthopedic procedures. Biovance membrane serves as a natural scaffold that supports a high level of fibroblast and keratinocyte attachment,1 or as a barrier membrane during the wound regeneration process to support tissue growth.2 Interfyl CTM provides a native extracellular matrix for cell attachment.3
