What tissues can be stored in the CranioLoc® Packaging System?

CranioLoc® is designed and recommended to store autologous tissues. Although originally designed to solve challenges associated with storage of cranial flaps at hospitals, CranioLoc® is not limited to the storage of cranial flaps only.

Do CranioLoc® Pouches come in different sizes?

Yes, CranioLoc® pack contains ten individual sterile standard 90-136 kits. Each kit contains a 7.5”x9” inner Primary pouch and a 9”x10” Secondary overwrap. This two-pouch system will accommodate a bone flap up to 6” in its widest diameter. CranioLoc® Plus pack contains one sterile 10.5”x12” Secondary overwrap used along with one standard 90-136 kit. This will accommodate larger bone flaps including a hemi cranium. The 9”x10” overwrap from the standard 90-136 kit becomes the new Primary pouch and the Plus 10.5”x12” pouch becomes the overwrap.

Can I purchase the CranioLoc® Plus overwrap separately?
