Indications for Use
1. To repair simple anterior glottic stenosis due to anterior commissure web formation. 2. To prevent anterior glottic stenosis in situations where anterior commissure stenosis is likely to occur (eg, following extralaryngeal or endolaryngeal trauma with loss of anterior commissure). 3. To prevent the anterior glottic stenosis immediately following removal of the Montgomery Laryngeal Stent.
Device Story
Umbrella-shaped laryngeal keel; conforms to anterior commissure anatomy; available in 12mm, 14mm, 16mm sizes. Used by physicians to maintain airway patency and prevent stenosis post-trauma or post-stent removal. Radiopaque material allows visualization. Device provides mechanical support to prevent tissue adhesion during healing.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Finished device samples passed cytotoxicity testing (Elution Test, USP 23) and were determined to be non-reactive and non-cytotoxic.
Technological Characteristics
Umbrella-shaped laryngeal keel; radiopaque synthetic polymer material; available in 12mm, 14mm, and 16mm sizes. Mechanical device; no energy source or software.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients requiring repair of simple anterior glottic stenosis due to anterior commissure web formation, or prevention of anterior glottic stenosis following extralaryngeal/endolaryngeal trauma or removal of the Montgomery Laryngeal Stent.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
Ear, nose, and throat synthetic polymer material is a device material that is intended to be implanted for use as a space-occupying substance in the reconstructive surgery of the head and neck. The device is used, for example, in augmentation rhinoplasty and in tissue defect closures in the esophagus. The device is shaped and formed by the suregon to conform to the patient's needs. This generic type of device is made of material such as polyamide mesh or foil and porous polyethylene.

Dear Mr. Montgomery:
This letter corrects our substantially equivalent letter of August 9, 1996.
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
