CSMG Technologies Announces Successful Tendon Reconnection Using Tissue Welding/Bonding


CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas, April 10, 2006 (PRIMEZONE) -- CSMG Technologies, Inc. (OTCBB:CTUM) announced today that the company's patented tissue welding/bonding technology has been successfully used to reconnect tendons.

CSMG President and CEO Donald S. Robbins said, "This advancement further validates the many uses of our technology. The tendon reconnection procedure using tissue welding/bonding resulted in strong tensile strength and allowed the tendon to be connected efficiently without the use of sutures, glues, sealant or staples. With these positive results, we will continue developing the tendon reconnection procedures using our technology."

CSMG owns the technology and exclusive world rights to the medical device for this procedure through Live Tissue Connect, Inc., a subsidiary corporation formed for the development and exploitation of the platform technology.

The tissue welding/bonding technology for repair and reconnection of tissue and hollow organs is smokeless, with little heat migration in the tissue. It results in no necrosis and is without the use of foreign matter or conventional wound-closing devices, such as staples, sutures, glues or sealant. The procedures are almost bloodless. Unlike other tissue coagulation methods that tend to destroy tissue by charring, searing and necrosis, the CSMG-patented technology bonds and reconnects incised tissue using a patented low-heat delivery method aimed at restoring the normal functions of the live organs and tissue. The technology leaves little or no scar visible to the naked eye.

About CSMG Technologies' Tissue Welding/Bonding Technology

Surgeons at 10 Ukraine hospitals and clinics are using the tissue welding/bonding technology in clinical trials, have completed more than 5,000 human surgeries using more than 70 types of open and laparoscopic surgical procedures, and demonstrated that the technology is universal in its ability to repair soft biological tissue. These surgeries included lung, neuro-surgery, nasal septum, intestine, stomach, skin, gall bladder, liver, spleen, blood vessels, nerves, alba linea, uterus, bladder, gynecology, fallopian tube, ovary and testicles, and dura-matter. Cosmetic surgeries conducted with this technology include breast reduction, breast implants, mastopexy and abdominal plasty. The procedure involves little or no scarring, while restoring the normal function of the body organ or tissue.

The technology was invented and developed at the internationally renowned E.O. Paton Institute of Electric Welding, National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine at Kiev, Ukraine, headed by Professor B.E. Paton. United States and Australia patents have been issued with other U.S. and foreign patents pending.
